Water pump/thermostat: Whenever it starts to act up as it tends to fail slowly (ex, cooling fan continuously running at high speed).
Motor Oil: For the 10k mile drain interval look for LL01, LL01FE, or LL04 oil certs. If for some weird reason you can't find it then look for Mercedes Benz 229.50, 229.51 VW 504,507
Weights 0w-30, 0w-40, 5w-30, 5w-40
Walmart Castrol 0w40 is popular, so is M1 0w40, BMW TPT (dealer oil) is also very good.
Belt tensioner: It'll allow the belt to squeak. Replace belt along with it.
First I would look at the oil filter housing gasket (OFHG) and valve cover gasket for leaks. You don't want to let the OFHG go unattended.
