Since you provided this first list, what about the water pump? I've read that because it is electric and not mechanical, it can go out without warning, and was thinking it might be wise to replace as a preventative maintenance item.
Thoughts? Is it straightforward for a somewhat competent DIYer? Or buried somewhere requiring major engine disassembly to replace.
