Were you due for an oil change? Do they just normally follow the letter of the law--perhaps time for another dealer.

Absolutely agree that this comes down to the dealer. In my case my wife had a slow leak in one of her tires on the X5 and after refilling it several times I ended up taking it to my dealer. Turns out there was a small nail she had picked up somewhere causing the problem. Given a run flat there was no option to repair so I had them put on a new tire considering the X5 had less than 10K on it at the time. In fact it was roughly 8K and since they were doing the work they too voluntarily changed the oil and did the other 10K service at the time.
