Do you happen to know what the service schedule is for the N54? This would be a good piece of information to have. It does not appear anywhere in the manual.

A part replacement isn't a mileage based service cost, and you certianly can't include it as if every car is going to have it. Even if $600 of it was parts, you're saying that there was $3200 in additional cost involved for the service, and that's crazy.
The MOST you'll need is a full fluid flush, and an oil service. It should be under $1k US.
The N54 won't need anything more than oil changes, and possibly a valve adjustment. What is it that you think would drive up the service cost for this engine compared to other BMW engines?
