V6 Petrol engine used a different transmission (the 4 speed Ultradrive 42RLE) through 2007, the late model auto CRDs used the 545RFE (which is a very strong auto still used in the Hemi models today, albeit as 645RFEs now).
Many Chrysler auto transmission problems start when owners dump the wrong fluid into them, if you are going to self service then make sure you buy the correct fluid. I can speak from experience that dumping the fluid, changing filters, etc, can be a really messy job.
