4Runner going into the shop - what else should I have repaired?

[NorthernRunner]

I'm heading out of town for 2 weeks for work before a long trip so I'm not going to be able to do the following preventative maintenance myself:

• water pump
• thermostat
• all belts
• new starter (solenoid is causing a grinding noise after starting)

Can anyone think of anything else I should have done with all of the parts removed to do the above work? It's about to roll over to 150k kilometers (93k miles) and it's a 99. I already did the LBJs at 140,000km.

Thanks!

Hopefully a new timing belt with the water pump and thermo... Get the starter rebuilt, you don't want a cheap aftermarket one put in there.

Yeah I'm having all the belts changed.

I was under the impression that, since I'm having the work done at a dealership, they'd use an OEM starter - but I've received a few messages stating otherwise. I replaced the contacts in my starter a couple months ago but I've been getting an intermittent grinding noise when I start the engine, which I thought was the solenoid not disengaging the starter. I may have accidentally degreased the starter when I cleaned it with contact cleaner though, so I'll have them take a look at it rather than replace it.
