I used to get CE lights on my ex-REX every spring and every fall. Something about temp fluctuations got on-board sensors upset.
At first, I would get them read/reset at the dealer. Later on, I ignored them (leased car) and they would clear on their own after X-many ignition cycles.

Yours could be similar, or could be something serious.

You need BMW-specific ODB-II code reader.
The generic stuff above is failing to read/interpret BMW codes.
You could try resetting them, and see if they come back. That would be one way to confirm if the issue is ongoing, or was something spurious.

HTH,
