What are the service intervals and what do they include?

I've got almost 10k miles on my 335i and although I did one oilchange at approx 5k miles I'd like to find out what the service intervals are and exactly what do they cover?

Can someone provide a link with the info?

I cant find the manual hence I posted here.... Piotr it's hard for me to believe that there's no STATED mileage or time and instead one has to rely on when the car DECIDES it needs to be serviced

Kev,

Mine is due for service sometime within the next 1800 miles. I'm not sure what the STATED amount is, but I am pretty sure that it depends on your driving habits.

Just compare and contrast: I am at 11,300 miles and need a oil change at 13,100 (as far as the computer says). You are at 10,000, when does the computer estimate your next service to be?

As far as what to expect... well I'm hoping that at the very least they change my oil and make my brake squeak go away (after some service it has recentley come back). Knowing these dealerships though, I wouldn't expect much...

MAYBE, if you play your cards right, you might walk away with the receptionist's number...

Ahh yeah, forgot about that little factor... Let me know when you're due for service, maybe we'll bring them in together.

It would probably be okay to call the dealer and speak to a SA. I know it's and extra step.
