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.
This is BMW we are talking about. Most owners have never cracked the hood.
Toss in the free maintenance and loaner cars, it becomes a non issue until that BMW goes out into the world second hand ownership.
