Default AU: Just acquired 2002 a4 1.8t multitronic

Hey all my names is Zac, from Australia, I recently just got hold of a 2002 model 1.8t a4 b6 fwd with cvt transmission. Second Audi, used to have a v6 and always missed it, picked this one up cheap with a few issues and got them all sorted.... for the most part. Almost full service history but was well overdue when I bought it.
Sparkplugs falling apart literally, throttle body gears worn down, airbox in backwards and caked in dirt, watered down coolant, wrong oil filter and black sooty oil. Did full service on it drives beautifully with 257,000km on it. Gearbox oil was done at 202,000km I think, so it's overdue, have it booked in to get done. Has one annoying issue, coolant level warning light comes on occasionally even when coolant is full and recently bled the system (from the wheap hole on the heater core and by lifting the expansion tank up).
Also, how long do these multitronic gearbox's last for if you change the oil regularly?

Nice looking car, someone kept care of it despite the other things needing attention. Sorry, don't know much about the CVT although their reputation is not always positive.
