Dealer maintenance? Not if I can help it. S70 2000

If I were you I'd consider also doing the following.

- Remove all grease in door/trunk hinges and replace with a quality synthetic lubricant.
- Remove and re-glue all door and sunroof gaskets with aircraft quality epoxy.
- Retorque all chassis bolts with an electronic torque wrench.
- Dyno-test the driveline to detect any malperformance issues before they bite you in the behind later.
- Remove valve head and inspect visual for ANY abnormal wear symptoms. Be sure to retorque as specified, plus you'll get the peace of mind knowing all is up to spec.
- Using a multimeter, verify the operating ranges of the MAF and throttle body sensors.
- Replace the radiator thermostat, OEM suggested.
- Replace all hoses under the hood. Again, OEM suggested.
- Of course, rebalance all wheels. Suprised you didnt do that one.

Hope this helps.
Good luck.
