To add to rroderiques77's list, I always check engine mounts and control arm bushings as they are usually pretty warn after 100k. Although I think the method to my madness lately is to just replace all wearable front end suspension items just to be on the safe side.

Most of this stuff you can do yourself. What ever the parts cost.

Check your owner's manual and look under service requirements. At least you have read it and can judge what needs to be done. I am pretty sure the suggestions above are accurate.
