If you have the proper diagnostic tool, it can tell you which cyl is misfiring and how frequently. I use Torque Pro for Android. It's usually the rear coils that goes bad first. If you're going in, I'd suggest at the minimum a new set of plugs all around and new coils in the back, and any good coils from the rear can be rotated to the front to replace any questionable ones there. If you want to be thorough, a new set of plugs and coils every 60k mi. This can be a DYI job provided you're very careful and patient when doing the rears, but some people leave it to their mechanic.
No pulleys were recommended by my mechanic, but a new belt should be installed every 60k.
