2k mi. Anything I should get started doing maintenance-wise?

At 2k miles, medium/hard driving and mostly city driving. I'd like to keep this in as tiptop shape as possible to mitigate maintenance issues going forward. Any suggestions are welcome. 330i / B48 engine

I did an oil change at 5.1K miles at dealer & asked tech not to reset service/maintenance minder. Multi-point inspection showed no issues & no fluids needing to be topped up. Similar driving experience as you. Btw, engine in our cars is B46D https://www.bimmerworld.com/About-Us...U-Differences/

It's a BMW so stuff will break. Just change the oil every 5k miles and DO NOT tune the car or add a circa 1950's technology aka "high performance" air filter.


ATF change every 50k-80k miles

I think mine's got the e-LSD and not the true M-diff though I could be very wrong, would you still advise something similar?
