Now before anyone starts to harp on me for this comment, I'm just paraphrasing my Service Tech.

I think you are correct as my 535 is 12 mos old now (with 10K miles). I' m taking it in for the annual oil change and they told me I'd still have to come back for the 15K mile oil change...as this is considered a "low mileage oil change" and they wouldn't be able to reset the computer....I'm like wtf I thought the whole BMW service process was based in CBS or "condition based service" that 15K mileage based service sounds arbitrary to me??
