hey i got my 95 540i yesterday and its got so many controls and crap.
I've figured a majority of them out except how to enable/use cruise control?
Also what is the ASC button for kinda down there by the shifter?

Push lever forward to set/accel, pull back to set/decel. Pretty straightforward actually...

that asc shifter button is manual/automatic trans operation. I dont think its a good idea to use it much, mine says A & * the snowflake is so it takes off in third on snowey conditions, it also actuates the brakes for traction controll to prevent spinning and sliding sideways (believe it or not)

ASC (automatic stability control). It is a traction control system. It works with ABS and DME engine control to enhance car control. It also prevents tiers from doing burnouts when you push the pedal to the metal when accelerating from a stop. It is off when you see an ASC light displaying on the dashboard. It is a great feature to have in winter, also will save you some money on wheels lol

Cruise control is in page 42 and ASC in page 35.

Anybody know if there is a similar link to the radio manual (KE-83)?
