Default Servicing the A8 - 183,000 miles

My A8 is due its second service in my ownership. I have asked a local indie for a quote, thing is what should I be getting done apart from an engine oil and filter change.

I have asked the workshop for a oil / filter change,
Change of spark plugs,
Diagnose issue with creaking suspension, suspect upper OSF arms,
They will also do a full inspection of the car including brakes, gaters etc.
They are hopefully going to remove the front bumper and sort out the lower section which is hanging down in the middle and always getting caught on kerbs. I am not fussed how this is sorted so am leaving that up to them, I think they are going to cut away a section which hopefully will not be to obvious.

Anything else, brake fluid was done just before I got it, along with the pollen filters (8K miles ago).
