Last paid service

I am quickly approaching my 4 yr/50k miles anniversary. I have a 328i coupe (non turbo).

basic items covered are:
oil change
air filter
cabin filter
Rotate tires
Inspect and top all the standard fluids.

Will try to add to that list:
Lubricate all rubber seals, doors/windows/sunroof
Replace battery (starter cranks up longer than used to)
Flush auto tranny (hesitates a little under load up-hill

I know brakes are in very good shape. Am I missing any important items? Were you able to get these things or additional service covered for your last free service. Btw I have had sparks and coils replaced recently.

Anyone with a somewhat recent last service feedback?? There must be some more 12s and 13s e9x owners besides me 😁.

If I were you, I'd seriously dig around under the hood, and spot for oil leaks/wetting say by the oil filter housing gasket, oil pan gasket, see the condition of the brake fluid (if black, should be pretty clear in color), inspect your control arm bushings, inspect interior door panels, center console, steering wheel for peeling, free wipers replaced (annually), replace rear trunk struts if closing your trunk doesn't offer some form of resistance, windshield weatherstrip for cracks, noises within your window regulator (roll windows up/down; does it clatter?)... these are off the top of my head. I remember going through the car as detailed as possible to get'em to take care of it all.1

When I had mine I asked for wiper blades, they're kind of pricey so why not....after being out of maint I got one set BMW, then ordered up the Valeos who if I'm not mistaken is OEM when they were like 2 for 1 online...

Car is holding up great. No apparent leaks but I'll check in more detail. May have tp take the engine cover off for a better view.

Almost forgot about the wiper blades.
Thanks!
