Tips on making the N47T run forever

Hey all,

I now it's kind of a generic question, but I've decided to keep my 14' 328d for the long haul (150k+ miles) and I need to know all tips on keeping these diesels happy year round and avoiding major catastrophic failure. I've always done premature oil changes (every 4-5k thousand) at the dealer, along with completing all the recalls and recently having a new EGR valve and cooler installed. I'm currently sitting at 96k now and I'm about to embark on a 2,000 mile trip out west, what are some tips specific to diesel engines as this is my first diesel car, as I was used to the longevity and simplicity of my E90 328i which was at 195k miles before it started having costly repairs.

Thanks in advance
