what needs to be done?

Hey guys I had a few questions for my 2010 X6 Hybrid. I bought it in 2013 with about 23,000 kilometers on it and now it has 65,000km, so just over 40,000 miles.

The only thing I've done is changing the oil every 10,000 km and last year I did the brake fluid service.

Is there anything else suggested at this point, I know it only has 65,000KM but it also ten years old so things such as brakes, spark plugs, oils/fluid. Any recommendations would be great.

one thing I forgot to mention is that I get the high battery discharge while parked error message a couple times a week. I replaced one of the batteries early this year but I notice that when I unlock it, all the lights flicker slightly and when I open the door the puddle light also flickers. Is that a weak alternator or could it be something else?

Thanks!

From searching online I've gathered that I should change the transmission fluid, front and rear diff + transfer case fluid.

I will be changing plugs and coils at the same time. NGK 97506 gapped at 0.20", I have ESS tune and catless downpipes.

Would I be okay doing just a drain and fill for all these fluids or do I have to do the flush?
