Has this technique as you described worked for you in the past?

"Lose out on service?" Do you believe 4 years of NO COST service brings in the big bucks to the dealership? You think BMW is paying the dealer $50+/hr for Mr. Goodwrench to put in new wiper blades and change the oil? Service departments have long been simply a necessary evil to support the sales operation. And who says I won't buy another car from them? If their pricing is good and their paper-pushing efficient, I'll be happy to consider them for future purchases. As far as what has worked in the past, yes, I have found that people who are only needed for an hour of paper pushing are amenable to asking less than several thousand dollars in profit. And you?
