Am I likely to face any major problems in my Audi A6 quattro?

My job requires me to drive around 25,000 miles pa, mostly on long, dull motorway trips. I am currently using a 2008 Audi A6 3.0 TDI Auto Quattro Avant. Can you please advise what, if any, problems I might have over the next few years of high mileage driving in my Audi? The car has been serviced by Audi at the prescribed times since new.
