had a quik look and find such info in BMW websites:

Dynamic Drive.
Dynamic Drive uses active stabilisers on the front and rear axles to counteract the vehicle's tendency to roll in a corner.

Self-levelling suspension.
Self-levelling suspension adjusts the height of your vehicle's rear axle for better driving dynamics and safety.

So DD and Self levelling are two different things. DD attack body roll while cornering by stiffening both front and rear axles, and Self-levelling act on rear axle only to maintain a level body when towing or carrying heavy loads at the back seat or trunk.
