Out of warranty we do 8k mile OCI or once per year if we don’t reach 8k miles. We use Red Line motor oils in all of our cars, including the f22 m240ix. The g20 just received its last BMW free once/year oil change. Next oil change, it too will get Red Line motor oil.

Sounds like your b58 is running strong so just enjoy driving and learning its limits without worrying about the past 46k miles. The f22 m240i/m240ix is a blast to drive and eventually you’ll stop worrying about what was/wasn’t done for the first 46k miles!
Thanks man, I do love the car. And will take care of it that's for sure. Is there anything simple I can do to check if any damage has been done? I'm going to book a health check in with my BMW specialist for peace of mind.
