Flashed TCU with xHP transmission tune - significantly firmer shifts - more willing to down shift in drive - downshifts better into turns - sport mode is a beast - engine sound slightly lower (is that in my head)? I’m expecting city mpg to drop slightly, hwy unaffected. So much more fun to drive!

Oil change with Castrol Edge, BMW oil filter (mahle) [both from dealership] Mailed in oil to Blackstone for analysis. Came back with high levels of iron (typical for long change oil), small amounts of chrome (keep an eye on ring wear), and very little of many "average" anti-corrosive and plating (titanium).
