There must have been some sort of weird service interval changed on mine (very early build -purchased June '14). Last week I randomly looked at my service alerts and it said mine was due in April, but yet it has 4,700 miles to go until due. I was thinking it wouldn't need oil until 12K (which roughly matches the miles) but I was shocked to see it was "overdue".
No warning lights/reminders, and it didn't "pre-call" the service dept for an appointment (my X3 does this). I stopped by and the SA checked the fob and said "yep, just bring it in, its due" but offered no specifics.
Background: 2015 M4 DCT with 6K miles. Daily driven, no track time (yet).
This has never happened with any of my previous BMWs. Maybe just paranoid, but I just read that R&T article.
