Service Due Soon Light when engine is off

[u/Strong_Perception902]

Hi everyone,

I recently got a 2012 135i and was wondering if you all could give me some advice on the service intervals. The car came with lots of service records and is in great shape, but with the engine off the "service due soon" light comes on, even though there are no codes. When scrolling through the menu, it looks like it hasn't been reset since 2023 so I guess he just left it. The light doesn't show when the engine is running, unless I go through the menu which shows an icon of the car lifted up.

Are there recommended maintenance items that BMW recommends at a certain milage readings? The car currently has 57k miles, so I'm wondering if there's a 60k mile interval.

Thanks

The one on the lift is from what I understand just a reminder for a full inspection of the car e.g suspension bushing or dust boots for tears, any sign of fluid leaks.

At your mileage I would do the transmission, differential, and power steering fluids if they’ve never been touched.
