Nothing in particular for that year, of course at 120k miles is time for a timing belt kit, perhaps the shock absorbers got stiff (especially during the cold season it gives a less than comfortable ride on poor streets), inspect the alternator and A/C pulley are not about to seize, do a PCV test with a glove (look up on Youtube).

I found these notes in my file. Probably from this or another owner's forum site:
"Front suspension bushings, sway bar links, and the spring seat/shockabsorber isolator, and fuel pressure sensor failures affect all P2s. 2004 R and non turbo models were first with the fuel pressure sensor but in 2005 most others got that part and it fails with time on all."
