Every dealer charge $132.50 per hour. As far as maintenance. What exactly do you need done. Service I or II. Service I is pretty much do it yourself. Search the forum and you will find lots of gem... I do offer oil change but I'm out in Herndon. PM me.

I am a big fan of EDA Motors in McLean, VA. Its a garage attached to a chevron station on Old Dominion but they do BMWs and the guy used to work at a dealership.

They aren't the cheapest, but they aren't as expensive as the dealer. Max is the guy you are looking for.

SA: Bend over and everything will be fine
YOU: but my cousin works here

SA: in that case, bend over and we'll use a bit of vaseline.
YOU: ugh....
