BMW claims it will drop based on time, mileage and driving conditions. How much have you driven it vs it being broken down in your driveway?
My F150 will do it based on driving style and miles, both it and the 2011 seem happy asking for new oil every 7k. Given my sudden lack of driving, that may be roughly once a year or so.
