Aside from the standard log book servicing that is done.

What sort of other things should I be looking at replacing at this age?

Cooling system etc?

Im all for over servicing!

Edit - What about replace all cooling hoses? Im apprehensive, I once got all my hoses on my tD5 done without inquiring about cost.. Quite a few hoses on them :P $$$

Change and flush brake fluid. Abs bits are not cheap.

At 115k you might be up for some shocks and suspension rubbers and bushes. You don't have too, but you will notice the new ride.

I just had much of my suspension re bushed with rubber at 90K, and it drives like new again.

My rough plans is

Coolant and brake fluid every 50K
Trans oil every 20K
Diff oil every 12 months.
G box every 50K
Hoses.... I'm hoping for 150K. Installed a low water alarm for $160
shock rubbers every 12 months if hard driving or touring, 2 years if normal
Shocks at 2 to 250 thousand. Only because they are big koni's.
suspension rubbers, every 100K
power steer fluid ?
wheel bearings and seals every 100K
serpentine and air con belt, 150K
