E70 Active Stabiliser service??

Hi, this is my first post so go easy, I've been reading the forum for sometime, some great info for our cars.

I have a 2007 E70 X5, 4.8L petrol V8, I was in my local BMW dealership for an MOT and the service adviser told me my car is coming upto a major service early next year.

He told me about the oil, airfilter, sparkplugs etc which I knew about then his computer came up with something I've never heard before - "Active stabiliser service" we had never heard of it and the computer quoted no price, so he went out back to talk to a technician, he came back and said "It is a pyrotechnic device fitted to your bonnet" I then joked "So my bonnet could blow up??!!" he said he would find out more and call me which he hasn't.

After looking on the web I think it is part of the dynamic drive or a bonnet airbag for pedestrians but no other info so does anybody know what it is?? what they do to service it? and roughly how much?

Thanks
