From this menu, you will be able to scroll through a list of options including things like ‘engine oil’, ‘vehicle check’ , and ‘front brake pads’. Simply select the option you’d like to check and the vehicle will give you a status on the selected option.

               If your BMW is not equipped with the iDrive System, you can check your vehicles need for service status by using the instrument cluster located behind your steering wheel. There should be a little button  towards the left side of the instrument cluster that you hold in until the menu changes. At the point of the menu change, push the button to cycle through your service options and see which ones are green.
