Diesel X5 Life expectancy

All,
I have a 2010 35D with 150k miles on it. I love this thing, use it for a daily and tow my travel trailer. However, I'm starting to get worried about reliability and was hoping you guys could help me out with your experiences.

In the last year (some in the last week) I have replaced the following:
Footwell module
Throttle Body
Turbo oil lines
Fuel pressure and temperature sensor
Glow plug module
Passenger airbag seat sensor
Headlights
One taillight
Getting ready to do the front and rear brakes and new tires.
I know it also needs new front strut bearings (and probably struts also)

So the question is, Is this thing about had everything fixed or am I in for another year of massive repairs? How much life on transmission, etc.

I'm trying to decide if it's time to move on and fork out the 70k for a new one, or if I'm pretty much done with major repairs I can just keep up with minor maintenance and repairs.

Thanks for your opinions.
