Replaced receiver/dryer. The performance wasn't up to snuff - after replacement and recharging it is. This was probably a result of having the system open for about 3 weeks when the VarioCam repair was done at 63,000 miles.

US $600
Rear right door latch assembly failed causing intermittent sounding of the alarm and preventing locking of the vehicle. 
109000 mi

US $135
The dash started displaying "Relieve Steering" on occasion when unlocked even though the steering was unlocked. It turns out this is a symptom of an antenna failure in the driver's side external door handle. Replacing the handle (with a used one) made the issue disappear.
