Although it can't hurt (well I guess it could if you weren't careful) to pull things apart from time to time and give everything a good clean, lubricate threads and O-rings. At least make it easier to service gear when the need arrises (particularly relevant for those of us who ocean dive (calcium deposits sand, algae, etc)). >Germany).

Warrenty on the SP made annual service kits free. Really a marketing gimic though as few people keep the annual services up. I did (although I usually serviced more than once a year due to high use) until they stopped the deal. The service kits are actually quite expensive and the shop seems to have a lot of trouble getting the right ones.
