New Car Performance

I have a 99 V70 GLT turbo with 95,000 miles. I'd like to think it will last another 100K miles, however it doesn't have that get up and go response that a newer car would have. I do keep up with tune ups, oil, filter and spark plug changes. Need some advice on a systematic check of all of the items that need attention, including transmission to restore that new car performance.

I do notice that on startup in the morning there are some clicking sounds as well as the headlights dim/brighten slightly. I don't hear the noises after the engine has run and restarted.

I've also recently replaced the struts and shocks with Bielstein Touring and the ride is almost like new.
