Nothing I can think of, except maybe replace the starter now, before it goes at some inopportune time. It's a lot easier and cheaper combined with a tranny drop, it'll otherwise cost you a couple hundred alone when the time comes.

How many miles on it? I ask because while you're under it (or he is) have a look at trans mount, oil pan seals all the way around, motor mounts and all hoses that have easier access from below. Is the $500 for parts & labor or just labor?  |

UUC sells a nice tranny mount for fairly cheap I believe.
