This should be for all the universal/mandatory maintenance at ~1200 miles on our cars.
Perhaps a sticky is in order?

I brought my M3 E90 DCT to be serviced at 1200 miles. I received a call from the service dept stating that they drained the transmission fluid and now yhey have to get the fluid directly from BMW. The car has been at the service dept for a total of 7 days. What happens if they change the transmission fluid?
