Thats the £1000 (Yen equivalent) , factory upgrade. Indicates if your filter and oil is in need of replacement.

If you look closely, the symbol under the first picture is the same as the one under the second picture. Plus another line. I'm guessing this is 'oil'. So the first would be 'oil filter' then 'oil' and I'm guessing the last one is a 'radiator'.

Could be for pressure. When you change your oil and disconnect the oil filter, see if the light turns on when you put your key in and turn it to two. (Don't for Christ sake turn the car on!!) both should light up. Same if you change your antifreeze I guess.

You can press each of the 3 and it acts like a button. But doesnlt light up or anything. Be interesting to know what exactly it does.

Perhaps they are extra sensors for oil, oil filter and air filters. Sensing oil and air flow and warning when restrictions are 'sensed'. :unsure:

Yeah I'm guessing they are something along those lines. Just wondering are they a factory upgrade or is there any any links online to the product.

I was thinking aftermarket sensors for the above mentioned as opposed to a dealership upgrade. Is there a brand or anything on the box? For oil BMW have a yellow light as well as red. The yellow light tells you its getting low. Usually the red one always comes on when it's too late so it's useful in that aspect as a much safer earlier warning.
