Thank you, Steve. When you say over serviced is that a mechanical risk or is it just cost that could have been saved?

Thanks Gareth. Oil and air filters are covered. I will find out about transmission fluid. I suppose I'm hoping for a crystal ball which tells me to replace this cheap and easily accessible part to avoid an expensive and complicated repair later. If anyone has one of these it must be worth a lot of money!

I have a lovely 2011 Avant Quattro S Line on 180,000 miles. I am considering keeping it for another 50k or even 100k miles. What sort of things can I expect to go wrong with it if I do this. It is a diesel and the miles I have put on it (130k in 7 years) are mostly motorway. There is no smoke. Are there any precautions I can take to avoid trouble?
