BMW gauge check and Voltage test (vid)

So just for kicks, I was playing with the OBC on my E46... Here's the gauge-check:

Here's a battery voltage check...Do I need a new battery? you can see from the video how it changes from 11.3 or so to 14 upon starting...

You can access a whole lot of engine data with this OBC function such as actual coolant, engine temp, etc., fuel usage history, etc etc; Here's the list: http://bmwclubuae.com/forum/archive/index.php?t-1507.html

When you reset your service inspection (like after an oil change), how many liters of fuel does it indicate? Mine shows 2375.
