Following the model introduced by Aguech, Lasmar and Mahmoud [Probab. Engrg.
Inform. Sci. 21 (2007) 133-141], the weighted depth of a node in a labelled
rooted tree is the sum of all labels on the path connecting the node to the
root. We analyze weighted depths of nodes with given labels, the last inserted
node, nodes ordered as visited by the depth first search process, the weighted
path length and the weighted Wiener index in a random binary search tree. We
establish three regimes of nodes depending on whether the second order
behaviour of their weighted depths follows from fluctuations of the keys on the
path, the depth of the nodes, or both. Finally, we investigate a random
distribution function on the unit interval arising as scaling limit for
weighted depths of nodes with at most one child
