Not sure what your problem is…but the CEL and Vehicle Status are TWO different systems…which is why you can have a CEL but Vehicle Status is OK.
The CEL (check engine light) is associated with the OBD II federal mandate that started in 1996 in the US market…and rolled out to other markets over the following decades. The OBD II mandate is to check the car’s emissions systems to reduce air pollution. So it monitors the car’s fuel/spark/air intake systems to make sure the car is not polluting. And it created a standard system across all car manufactures for scanning access and retrievable diagnostic trouble codes (DTCs). The Vehicle Status system is related to the BMW specific CBS (condition based service) system which includes the various service inspections for oil, brake fluid, brake pads, vechicle inspections, and in some cases local or state statutory inspections. Your CEL appears to be associated with your replacement engine and sensors detecting faults in specific areas (DTCs)”
Have you run your hex codes through a decoding site to see if you can get more details? Some of your hex codes have multiple iterations that you may need to look at to determine which one fits your engine/situation. If you’re not familiar with this site linked below…I suggest using AND saving it to your bookmarks for future use. This site will decode the generic OBD II 5 digit CEL/SES/MIL DTCs…as well as the 6 digit BMW hex codes you listed above: https://bmwfault.codes/ OBD II (see 3rd bullet) & compliance by country/markets:
