what is serviced at 15,000 miles

i called my dealer to set up an appointment for my 15000 mile service, but my SA told me that my car had an oil change in april, which makes no sense but he showed me the service record for it. now my question is what else gets serviced during this point.

Yes ...but dont rely on the I-drive info too much , as my i-drive showed the fr brake disc/pads have 1500 miles to service .
When i had the disc/pads checked while its was in garage....they needed replacing asap(would not pass m.o.t.)
I change my oil every 6 months and brake/ coolant fluid every 24 months regardles of what the manual/i-drive says


ps ........ logpak23, doubts its will be the steering fluid thats making the noise
