F30 320i Last Service - Recommendations?

[YNF30]

Hi Guys

The car is up for the last service @ 52k.
M/plan expiring in Dec.
I know they have their routine checks and service schedules to adhere to, however is there any preventative items I could perhaps try to swing my way to get done/checked out?

Few things I've noticed and will ask to check:
Popped front driver speaker
Grinding/metal noise when slightly braking
Puff of smoke on start up (apparently normal)
Every now and then, a slight Whistling/whiny noise at times, just normal driving, doesn't change when driving harder or braking, just constant.

Thanks

I asked them to check the timing chain & oil chain (Guide rails etc.) to be checked out as they are known for failing.

Thanks will ask,
Unfortunately this is just a 'top up' fluid service, if I recall correctly.
So not too happy, wanted to go out of plan with a service bang ;-)

My 320i just went for its last service a week ago - the plan expires on Saturday
Monday morning, my pipe pops off the coolant bottle
Called BMW and told them that the pipe popped off - when testing my car they picked up the whining noise - she is currently in the workshop getting the timing chain replaced, my car has about 85k on the clock now

Scared of the turbo going out next because this was never replaced and i generally have a heavy foot

Oil will also have to be filled every couple of months - apparently its normal for the motor to go through oil like this - i top up 2 liters every 3-4 months

Same here, my timing chain was replaced. Scared of the turbo failing.

A whining sound, it increases with the revs.
