Been planning some preventative maintenance on the 540i for the 200k date. Thinking of changing tranny mounts, temp sensor, a/c and main belt, water pump, thermostat etc.

Anything else I should do at this mileage?

think about flex disc, centre bearing etc. Not to hard and if they haven't been done nows a good time.

My radiator and then the water pump went bust (on different occasions - for maximum inconvenience!) at about 130,000 miles.

You might want to think about the radiator as the plastic necks, where the hoses attach, have a habit of breaking which can leave you stranded.
