Yes, I looked into it and the GTS at least has a longer oil level sensor which allows it to run an extra 0.5L of oil even though the oil pan capacity is the same.

If the M3 CS needs 7L of oil with filter then I would assume the M4 CS would be the same otherwise there would be 2 versions of CS tune.

I don't think the 0.5L would account for much in terms of potentially screwing up the oil level warning mechanism but looks like BPM already did some adjustment to account for it. Not sure about BM3 yet
