Does anyone know exactly what's done for the 1 year service beside oil and filter?

I had my 1 yr on the old M850i; about 6 months ago pre-COVID. All they did was oil change.
And I had to go to 3 different dealership to find one to do it. And I didn't get any loaners, and it took 3+ hours.

Did mine yesterday. For the M8 it was oil change and differential/axel fluid change - same as on my prior M cars.

Plus you may get the added bonus of a software upgrade to mute your exhaust

Do you people indicate an oil preference? I have not studied this in details for the M850i but I believe many dealers will go for the 5W30 oil. I strictly want a 0W30 oil. Anyone knows if the one marked YELLOW the M Twin Power Turbo LL12 FE in the following picture suits our M850ies? It seems not available for BMW Group USA as per new.TIS.info. Here where I am based it should be available.
Please feel free to share if you are picky (as me) on oils or whether you just go with what the dealership has.

Just checked - my dealership used 0W-30.

Now that I'm gettin a Vehicle Will Turn Off Soon Message while driving, they're probably going to force an update. UGH!

Good news it looks like Azlar might be onto the reason and hopefully I can keep my software which I'll post on an appropriate thread.

One year service for me a few weeks ago. Just a vehicle check, no software update or oil change. Not enough km on the clock.

Interesting, here BMWUSA insists on an oil change at the 1 year mark no matter the mileage, which actually makes sense scientifically.

Wow. I would thought they at least change the oil.
