The main things lost are one oil change and some wiper blade replacements.
Not true at all. My last BMW I replaced the brakes before 30k miles. This one say brakes will be needed at 26k miles. If people didn't need new brakes they wouldn't change the rules.

They must think people don't value the current coverage. I doubt I would buy another BMW with the plan changed. If you remove what separates you from other brands I think it will hurt sales.
