Ocean close to 100K miles - what checks?

[DaveB]

I've had our 2016 Ocean for new and love the van. I hate the config of the T7 models and see no reason to upgrade as ours drives pretty much as it did from new.

It needs a bit of love inside as we've not been the greatest of owners but I've stayed on top of the engine with DSG services etc.. all done to schedule. I was reading a thread about linkages to the gearbox failing and it got me wondering what I should be checking now to get our van through its next 50k miles. Cambelt is on the horizon anything else worth looking over "just in case"

Does this vintage of van suffer the driveshaft failures that take the gearbox out at the same time? Might be worth checking?

That's the main one I'm worried about

A couple of driveshafts can’t be more than a couple of hundered a pair fitted?
