Rear brake Pads

Hello guys, got an X3 28i 2013 with 113,000KM or 70,000miles. The warning light for my rear brake pads stayed for a long time at the same KM warning, now the last month it slowly went down to officially say brake pads due and I'm already in the red by 500 KM!
Is there an actual sensor (laser?) that checks the thickness of my pads once they get low?
1. Do the OEM pads eventually screech like my old Honda pads did when it gets lower? Because for now I have not noticed any braking problem or vibrations.
2. Will the dealership try to sell me the discs to replace too? Is it necessary or will they only change the rear pads?

My oil change is due in 2000 KM, so I was thinking at least to do both at the same time with one visit.
Thanks!
