It all comes down to how many miles you drive per week over an 8 week average, the miles remaining generally has to be below 2,000 miles to perform any service.
However, if you drive, say 400 miles a week, then if it shows ~4,000 miles remaining, the service may be performed. it all depends.

As for the brakes, whether or not it says it's due if the brake pad material is below 4mm, they'll be replaced. so ask the SA to have the tech measure the remaining amount.

Furthermore, starting Oct 1st (today), the "bundling" that I mentioned in the beginning will no longer allow BMW to "pull ahead" brake jobs. so if you're at the facility and the pads measure 4.1mm, they won't be changed.

Lastly, there are many instances when the CBS for the brakes is incorrect and they aren't actually due. So if the car says they are due but the material is too thick, they won't be replaced but programmed to reflect a more realistic value of miles remaining. Very common on the F3X and F25's.
