I see this car, 550i doesnt have much DIY posted. So please share with me major maintenance schedule and what it's called for...or are maintenance just oil change and brakes. I owned previously Lexus ISF and I know it had major maintenance scheduled for spark plugs, rear dif fluid, etc. which I did it myself because it was costly. So please share with me fellow F10 535 & 550 owners. I will actually start doing oil change @ interval 7500 miles and will have video posted soon. And by next month front brake and rear brake videos. Hope to hear from you guys.

Allan - did you get the owner's manuals with the car? If so, there's a maintenance / service guide that will show you what each maintenance interval requires. Normally they alternate between basic oil changes with air filters and the like to more complex maintenance. You may also be able to find the maintenance schedule by searching this forum or the web.

If you can't find it, I can see about digging mine out - not sure if the schedule has changed between your MY (2011) and mine (2014) - I suspect they're pretty similar.
