Your SI batteries are more than likely the cause of your check lights coming back on and the odo not working, read this link on how to change em' out: http://www.pelicanparts.com/BMW/tec...placing_service_indicator_board_batteries.htm
Peace.

I've got the same issue on my GF's 30 (can't turn off the inspection light) and my SI batteries are new. I think the easiest way to get rid of it would be to take the cluster apart and pinch the bulb with some plyers. Seriously. As far as the odometer, the gears have been known to get stripped by the old grease eating away the plastic teeth.
