I mean, mine did run "better" after he service... The exhaust got it's "pop" when shifting, etc. Mind over matter...? Perhaps, I fell for the whole "magic button" thing... Admittedly, I did drive like and "old lady" for the first 1200 as I wanted to ease her into use and scared shitless of breaking something I just wrote a very big check for... So maybe that's it too...
It's been documented ad-nauseum in F80 and other M model forums that all they do for this service is change the engine and differential oil. The DCT models did get launch control enabled on older models, but BMW got rid of this with the X3M/X4Ms. They're blowing smoke...
