Hey guys, I'm approaching 46k miles, are there any services you would recommend doing before the warranty goes out?
I did a search and surprised that there isn't a comprehensive checklist, faq or sticky because we pretty much all are gonna get to this point sometime, right?

My Ride: 2006 530i Sport
Silver Gray - Black Leather - Anthracite Maple
Manual Transmission
Premium Audio
Cold Weather Package
Rear sunshade
Sirius Radio
Autobahnd Roadblock (3M) film kit
I just had mine this past Tuesday.
FYI - I was told that I was lucky to have the service lights come on... that unless they were on, nothing would be paid for under the free service policy.
I have a 2006 530i that I took ownership of April 18th, 2005. It has ~30,500 miles on it, but the 4 year mark was what ran out first obviously.
I had lights on for general check, oil service, and brake fluid service. The SA also said his schedule said my HEPA filter was borderline, so they replaced it as well.

Check for a green light on your battery, shine a flashlight at it. If it's black or yellow mention it and they'll replace it.
Does your sunroof rattle when craked open?
Any creaks/grinding in the front end?
Can't think of any more right now.
p.s. I can't stop staring at your avatar, who's the beauty?

Haven't noticed any rattling in the sunroof.
No creaks or grinding in the front end either.
