There are a number of relatively inexpensive things you can do to prolong the life of that transmission. Do a fluid change (several drain and fills, not a power flush) with good JWS 3309 fluid, then do a B4 Servo cover change ($25 part, 0.6 hrs labor) followed by a software update at the dealer.

All the other things you list are basic maintenance items and are relatively cheap (two to three new car payments for an equivalent new model).

Good luck!
