Don't know anything about automatic transmissions, but the things I had to fix on my 2004 Aero were mainly suspension related items. Main thing would be to listen for clunking during braking/acceleration and turns. That could be a whole litany of things but I ended up replacing all 4 shocks, the subframe bushings and the motor mounts. That would have been very expensive at a shop (it wasn't cheap doing it myself).
If you have access to a service history it would be nice to see a recent fuel pump and crank position sensor, since they tend to crap out at around the 100k mark.
At least with the 2004 it should have the PCV 6 upgrade so sludging shouldn't be an issue.
