2nd Oil Change?

I’ve gotten the alert it’s time for an oil change.

But based on time and not miles.

This is the 10K and I just only rolled 6K. It’s also my first BMW, so I’m wondering if these roll as my previous cars - it’s ok to wait for mileage and time is only a factor if it’s an unusual long period of time.

Thanks in advance.

I am going for my second oil change this week, only covered 2,200 miles in one year.

It's "condition based" so mile or time, whatever is earlier.

Isn't the oil change free? You have 3 years of free maintenance so regardless of mile or time might as well use it up right?

If you delay it, then by the 3rd oil change (which is when plugs are changed too) you'll be out of free maintenance and thus will need to pay for it (or DIY).

Im due for a oil change as well based on the oil service indicator. But I rarely drive my M2C, so I do oil changes once per calendar year.
