It definitely won't by default, after the lease most Connected Drive features are disabled pending reactivation by the next owner
I still feel like something is missing though.
The truth is BMW stretches their service interval insanely long because they're giving "free" maintenance with leases
So if you drive any significant amount of time longer after the interval, there's a real chance of damaging the engine
But the liability issues of disabling a car remotely outside of asset recovery seem like something BMW would not want to mess with
Maybe it was an initial service? Some engines require an initial service immediately after break-in or suffer catastrophic damage, I could maybe see an exception in that case
Edit: I did find someone saying if you go 5k over the service limit, the car will not start immediately, flashing Service Required, but still allow starting normally from there
No one should be going 5k over a 15k interval when maintenance is free
