Brake service / fluid flush - $50
Transfer case fluid flush - $60 with new plugs
Fuel injector flush - ?? not sure
Microfilter - $20 (Advance Auto)
Air filter - $20 (Advance Auto Mann Filter)

Things not on your list:
Front Differential - $15 (one bottle of redline fluid)
Rear Differential - $15 (one bottle of redline fluid)
Transmission flush - $170 (parts from Tischer and fluid from Amazon)
You are assuming the OP DIYs. Not everyone knows how to work on cars.

If no codes are being thrown use Chevron Techron fuel injector cleaner (concentrate). It solves rpm fluctuating upon cold start-up. Also, for most BMW problems start off by scanning your car with the Peake Research Tool. It contains the actual BMW codes. If you want to register a newly installed battery for free (just buy a $10 cable) and google/download BMWLogger
