My 2008 D5 has done nearly 280k miles now, and I haven't yet had these niggles Ive had mine since 130k, and aside from consumables (bulbs, belts, tyres, brakes) it's had a couple of rear bushes, 2 rear calipers, 2 new springs, and a battery. It's due some refreshing now, but to put all that into context, it has a hard life, and minimal TLC.
I'd say you've got some headroom at 93k
