Most likely on 2000 and newer vehicles specially if the van is still driveable it's the sensors. Get them replaced and if not working then it can be mechanical.
How many miles are on this vehicle? I ask because the odometers in these car stop working around the 140k to 170k mark. Did the button comeback? Is this the mileage on the digital or analog trip meter? The process to change the odometer gear is fairly straight forward and takes less than $20 and an hour. Let me know.
There is nothing else to replace ... presuming you did everything correctly and the replacement parts were not faulty, I suggest you live with it. Keep track of the miles you drive and fill up when you have driven about 1/2 the estimated miles per tank for best results. I.E.: you get 10 MPG - your tank is 20 gallons = 200 miles per tank ... fill up every 100 or so miles.

You could take it to the BMW place and let them fix it.
Better than believing some one, who already tested your vehicle, and found a problem?
Not unless, you have years of experience,yourself,and wish to do your own diagnostics.
This happened to me. The valve that controls the air intake gets stuck which stalls the motor. I removed the air intake hose and wiped it clean using Acetone (nail polish remover). Its been running perfectly ever since....
the bcm,body control module counts the miles and sends it to the ipc Cluster so if its not counting miles the bcm is bad,common issue takes it oto dealer $400 ish
I read this over and over on these vans, same problem, you will need to have the trans overhauled to correct this problem, a $3000 job on this particular car.
