    I've been lucky thus far nothing major but the PCV valve replacement (parts & labour) cost me a packet.
    The EPB control module was probably my own fault but a second hand part was cheap and I've installed it myself. Same with upgraded Canbus module and radio head unit. Aside from that just wear and tear stuff - tires, brakes and rotors, front/rear suspension bushes, battery.

    That said with this sort of mileage I'm acutely aware the cars' days are likely numbered. I'm getting 'creaks' from front struts, electric steering and Haldex coupling. Lately, I've been getting ESC warning light coming on now and then.
    Still, I'm hopeful of getting to 500K km though - is it possible? Well, that a $64K question.
