BMW service intervals in Australia are driven by Condition Based Servicing (CBS), so the car pings you when it wants a pamper, not when a wall calendar says so.
As a rule of thumb, expect an engine oil and filter every 12 months or ~10,000–15,000 km, with brake fluid every 24 months and a general vehicle check at similar intervals.
Air and cabin filters usually land between 30,000–60,000 km, spark plugs around 60,000–100,000 km depending on engine, and coolant roughly every 4–5 years.
BMW calls many transmissions and diffs “lifetime fill,” but plenty of Aussie specialists suggest fresh fluid at 60,000–80,000 km if you like silky shifts.
Check your iDrive/cluster service menu and the handbook for the precise schedule tied to your VIN—CBS is clever, but a proactive owner is cleverer.
