Taking my truck to the Stealership.....???

OK, I just bought my truck and it has 33,800 miles on it. I am taking it to the dealership to get some minor things taken care of before my 3/36 runs out.
Right now the list sits as follows.
poping noise when turning left...I would assume its the steering shaft.
Driver side mirror shakes badly.
seatbelts squeak.
Fan was kicking on and off while the truck was warming up the other day. Might be normal.....

Is there any thing else I should have them look at. I know about the #2 and 7 harness but I have not had a problem, and I don't expect to tow any 14k trailers so I am not to concerned with overheating. but what else should be looked at?

what's up with the oil in the intercooler boots? we haven't had that pleasure yet. pretty common?
I will have them check those also. I just wanted to make this a one stop shopping and not have to be taking my truck back in 2 months. I am new to deisels and not familiar with there problems.

Very very common on llys and up. Its due to the stupid PVC system dumping into the intake track and it just fills up with oil, i dont think its known to cause anyproblems other than sludge stuff up. I know when i took my upper intake off to drill it for the boost gauge all the little ribs in the boot were full of oil as well as the ones at the intercooler driping all the time! they probally wont do anything about it other than clean the tubes and boots out!
that sucks!! maybe that oil will start eating boots and they'll have to fix it. probably doesn't hurt much other than possibly sludging up the intercooler...which would be a HUGE problem. this is interesting. have to keep an eye out.
