This is what I do. My Bernina's don't tell me when they need servicing and since I have a lot of machines and don't sew on any one of them a great deal, I do every 2 years. When the Bernina was my only machine, I took it in once a year. It did cost me, but it was a top of the line machine and like having your oil changed in your car, I considered it good insurance against larger problems.
