ARS = Active Roll Stabilization.
Quick way to check is to look at the rear stabilizer bar from the rear of the car. If it has some sort of motor in the middle of the bar you have ARS.
I'm pretty sure only the E61 wagons have the self leveling suspension.

Self levelling is not the same as ARS, it is used on the Tourer E61 to raise the rear end as weight is added as Tourers tend to carry heavier loads.
it does detract from the handling somewhat, the tourer is not as agile as the Sedan.
