I've got mine scheduled for about 10 days out as my vehicle is currently sitting at ~1050 miles. I'll give you guys an update of what is performed once I get it taken care of. I've seen some questions on this topic, so I figured I'd weigh in. He's also going to check on whether or not the AFE intake kit would effect the vehicle's warranty, so I'll give you an update on that as well once I get an answer.
Quite a few people here have gotten turned down for that service by BMWNA since they say this isn't a required service. While it's true that M cars come with break in oil and require such a service, this isn't an M car so it doesn't appear to come with such a requirement and probably comes with just normal oil. If you get them to pull it through, awesome. It just doesn't seem to be a requirement for this car.
