60K mi Service Questions 850 97R

My car is creeping up on the big "six-oh" and I'm planning on doing some maintenance on it.

This is what I'm planning on doing myself:

Plugs

Wires

Cap

Rotor

Brake Bleed / check pads

Fuel Filter

Air filter (if needed)

ECU filter

Oil & filter

Replace thermostat

This is what I'm going to have the dealer do:

Aux drive belt (A/C etc...)

Timing belt

I've already flushed & filled the coolant (at 50K), and flushed & filled the tranny (also at 50K).

I'm thinking about flushing & filling the power steering, but am unsure what the proper procedure is. Anyone have the procedure handy?

If I do it, I'll probably buy a couple of the in-line filters from IPD and put one on the steering and one on the transmission. Is this a wise decision?

Am I missing anything like "recalibrate computer" or do I have maintenance overkill here?

Thanks in advance,

Kyle
