I do my own maintenance too except for oil changes on the cages. I can't do it myself for any cheaper. This year alone, I've installed a new starter, complete set of brake pads and rotors, and drive axles. Next is the springs and struts.
My point was is that they maintenance he is talking about is so infrequent or in the case of oil changes, not worth worrying about all the engine shrouds and "blankets" BMW is now installing.
