Mine just hit 20000KMs and service required in ~10000KMs which would translate to roughly 18k miles.

Anyone else think the Auto Hold might seriously reduce brake pad life? Mine is always on, I've gotten so used to it now and love it. But in heavy traffic or at lights when people tend to be slow at starting, the Auto H seems to want to grab the brakes often and makes the car jerk ever so slightly, so I'm guessing that all this light braking/grabbing when your intention is not to actually stop but to coast at extremely low speeds might not help. Maybe the Auto H needs to wait a bit more before grabbing or I need to stop using it.
