Missing anything?

My car is going in for inspection in 3 weeks and the following is a list of what it's getting:
1. Coolant flush
2. Oil change
3. New belt
4. Inspection
5. Emissions

It's got 51k and change and I would have them flush the brakes but they only have 1 guy working that day. I need to run to the dealer for coolant and pick up all of the parts because I know what repair shops do to prices. Also, should I keep running 5w30 or make the change to 0w40? The rear brakes are getting done this weekend and the fronts were done a few months ago. I also just ordered my rear wiper today.

Hit enter by mistake eh? No matter. Have them check the transmission fluid. It wouldnt hurt to change it.

Good idea on picking up the parts yourself, yeah you should just go ahead and check the transmission fluid. Take Care!
