I am going to go out on a limb and say it is a transmission oil service. Are you past 100K miles? I have never seen this before but then again, i get my gear fluids changed at 50K.

50K miles seems soon to change that fluid. Is that part of a recommended service by BMW, or is that just being overly conservative?

On my M3 it calls for diff at 35k. As for all other BMW transmissions they are supposed to be life time fills. My SA (who is a friend and racer) suggests 50k on my DCT and 8AT even though BMW does not. He tells me the Service guys would do their cars at 50k. I do it out of precaution so I can have a piece of mind during the time I own my cars
