Car had major service around October last year, service light on already?

As title major service on the old five year service pack from BMW that the car came with.

I do extremely low mileage, as in under 3000mi per year work and leisure.

The dashboard is saying service due (a picture of a car with an orange highlight around it is coming up) June this year or in another 10-15000miles I forget which.

I was intending doing an oil change service once a year anyway, but is it time dependent or use dependent?

I do similar mileage and mine comes on every 12 months requesting oil.

I checked idrive and it's a brake fluid notification that is causing all this.

So I'll get that and oil done at once.
