Not sure about this. I think BMW could use the length of time between services as a way of getting out of a possible warranty claim. Just because they sell you a warranty, does not mean you are covered.

Ask BMW the question and get the answer in writing, at least then you'll have some come back.

Not sure I like the idea of the same oil being in the engine for 3 years, although I can't think why this would cause a problem. If you do buy the car, make sure you use this as a negotiating point!
