Default 72k "tune-up"

I've been going through my recently-acquired '06 UL. 72k miles, it's that time,y'know? I suspect that's part of why it was traded.

So far:
Michelin MXV4s
Changed oil to Quaker State Ultimate Durability 5w30 w/Denso filter. I think maybe Mobil 1 EP and a Bosch Distance+ next time, we'll see.
Denso air filter
Denso front cabin filter
OEM brake pads, shims, and hardware
Flushed brake system w/Motul MBF600
Rear diff fluid changed to Redline 75W90 synthetic
Doing the baster-flush method on power steering fluid, replacing with Mobil 1 synthetic Dexron
Full inspection underneath, looks like new under there (Florida car and it shows)
Coolant looks good, may have been changed, service records a little unclear. I think I'm just going to wait on this and do it with the timing belt/water pump.

I have an appointment to get the trans fluid exchanged on Saturday. Spark plugs are in hand, just have to install them.

Oh yeah, and I installed the Sport rear sway, just for fun.

So, almost done! Anything I missed?

The car is really a pleasure to work on, it's so well engineered.
