"Vehicle Check"

I have a 2006 330i with about 96,000 km on it and in the computer under "Service" there are dates, or km remaining until the following list of services,

1. Vehicle Check
2. Micro Filter
3. Engine oil
4. Brake Fluid (Date)
5. Rear brakes
6. Front brakes
7. Spark Plugs
8. Statutory vehicle Inspection (Date)
9. Statutory Emissions Test (Date)
10. Intake Silencer

I have the "Vehicle Check" lighting up now. What does that involve? Is this a minor service, or a major one?

Thanks.

It is basically an inspection of the complete vehicle. Doesn't take long.
