Hi Guys first post. I have recently bought an Audi a6 c6 BRE 2.0 tdi, 140bhp manual box. from a friend and it was serviced by his local guy, whom I don’t know it has 92 k on the clock, anyways due for another service soon I was considering a deep service , i.e. glow plugs, brake pads for rear and all oils and possibly brake fluids etc. so need a little help I’ve looked at pads my model has the electronic handbrake but cannot find exactly which parts I need  and any advice on which pads to get brembo is my choice but I’m sure some of you know better. Also glow plugs any ideas which ones are best and when if at all it’s worth doing as once again so many to choose from, the cam belt was done at around 45k but was looking at this also Gates is what I use but once again I’m open to ideas. Gearbox oils? Change or not have read many different opinions on this. Any good tips or info would be appreciated for dos and don’ts. Also is mapping as good as some say I drive normaly not intrested in speed get that at work so would a re-map help MPG and any info on this would be great.   I’m planning on keeping the car for many years so want to keep in tip top condition. Thanks guys.

Brake pads I would personally stick with OEM unless you're changing the whole set up or at least the discs too
