Quite a few checks you can do yourself and it will cost you nothing. Check wheel nuts tight. Check no dirt lodged in wheels if you have offroaded. Check ovality of tyres. Look for signs of oil leak from the king pins. jack up the front and grasp the top and bottom of the wheel and check for rocking motion. All of those will cost you nothing but dirty hands. If you have to go to a garage ensure they know the Jimny as they are different to "normal" cars.
