I forgot to mention, at 90K, it might be needing a starter rebuild in another 30-50K- $20 in parts from the dealer and about an hour of your time.

I'd say its a bit too new to be suffering from chronic rear axle leaks, like some of us are experiencing, but just for giggles, make sure there isn't axle lube leaking out of the rear on the drums...all the hardware out back should be relatively clean and not look like its oily wet.
