Default Engine out, what else?
2003 V70 D5, 125k.

My engine is out to replace a tiny inconsequential oil gallery plug just above the crankshaft. Anything else I should get done at the same time?

Timing belt was done 35k ago so that's fine.

Anything else? The car probably is not a keeper as I'm moving to a new job that calls for more driving so I'd be best getting something more economical.

Others will probably add to this but I would check the vacuum engine mounts for leaks and replace on re-installation if they are porous.

Why bother then, it's hardly going to add much to the sale value.
