I don't know if they still do it, but BMW used to have free routine maintenance for their cars (obviously built into the price of the car, but it was a nice feature). Replacing the NOx stuff has to add some expense, but I have no idea how much that will run. According to some press reports in 2008, BMW was going to pick up the cost of replacing the urea solution during regular maintenance.
