Two comments on the flush:

If you DIY, be VERY careful opening the petcock on the radiator--it is plastic and breaks easily and/or frequently will not reseal easily.

If you don't flush and the water pump ends up seizing, it will take out your timing belt and that will take out your valves at a minimum...
