What are the slots for ?

The three by the gear stick. If it's coins, then English ones don't fit very well. Not a great place to keep credit cards I'd think.

Its a mystery to me as well. I resigned to thinking that there's perhaps a temperature sensor or something along those lines there.

Did a quick Google search. One image shows a coin in one.
Current car: 2007 BMW 530d touring.
Previous car: 2005 S4 B7.
