Scheduled Maintenance covered under Warranty?

Hello all!

I have a 08 M3 vert w/ 6SP Manual Transmission.

I know there is a break in maintenance at 1200 miles which includes following services.

- Engine oil and filter change
- Transmission oil change
- Differential oil change

Now...I'm running toward my 17000 miles (It's been less than a year since I bought the car in July 2009...haha this car is so much fun to drive!!!!!! I've got engine oil change btwen 9000 ~10000 on my own),

and what are other scheduled maintenances that are covered under warranty? Things like when are next oil changes (engine, tranny, differential, and etc.)? When do I have to get brake services? And is there any other services that you are aware of? and etc...

I would appreciate a detailed schedule!!! Thank you so much in advance!!!

Services are a scheduled, or as with brakes and clutch, as warranted due to wear (brakes pad wear will be notified with a warning).

And a side comment, it pays to shop around for parts. Just called my stealer (you'll agree with me on this after you finish reading ) to price the 10/60 oil and was quoted $26+tax. WTF? And yes, that's for engine oil. Geez. And I thought Tischer had it expensive at $10.50.

European taxes on petroleum products suck.....no free services either.
