Not aware of the stalk button check, just the 2 options in the idrive under vehicle status, don't trust the first one would be my advice.

I've got a funny feeling the stalk button check was on the E60 M5 as i kind of recall that scrolling through the OBC display brought up a simple oil level display.

The new engine price is incorrect. Mines just had new one under warranty and the cost to Bmw was 21k still a hell of a lot of money but nowhere near 35k
