What to ask for last service at 49,950miles??

My 325i(build date is Feb 06) has 49,900 miles currently and will be around 49,950 this Friday, when I will take it in for the last service; brake fluid only according to the computer.

So, please help me guys... what else should i ask or check for this last time?

The car has been great, no major issues. I just awarded it the Powerbox last Saturday

And who said BMW or German cars aren't liable as japanese? This is my 1st BMW and it will be BMW or MB for the rest of my life I plan to drive this car until it dies, hopefully beyond 125k, then get a used 7 or S class

I already bought the extended service plan, which should take care the brakes in the future. I don't plan to buy the expensive insurance/extended warranty.

That is why this Friday is my last chance to get things fix under warranty. I have been holding off the passenger airbag sensor issues because I have the impression they would tear up my near-new passenger seat to install it. Is that true?

They will only do scheduled maintaince under the warranty. There is nothing else to ask for unless there is a problem with the car.

E90 is not your dad's BMW. I wouldn't count on 200k -- or even 125k without major work, at least a new slushbox (get a manual instead).

I think they might be able to access that by taking the seat out and going underneath it to get to the sensor

i think he meant your dads BMW (probably an older 5 series or something) was more reliable than the E90 has proven to be.
