2008 TSX with high mileage
I just bought my son a 2008 TSX, 5 spd auto that has about 202,000 miles on it.
The car is very clean, runs great, etc.... but am a little concerned about the miles....
any maintenance or checks or anything that I should consider to make the car stays in the best possible mechanical condition?
clean carfax and various services done on it but not many details provided.... I
I have had hondas for years but this is my first Acura.... with my hondas I was always told and followed the the rule that around 100k miles yo should replace the timing chain, water pump, etc...
same thinking here?
Thanks in advance for any feedback I can get here on the car...

Starter, passenger side door lock actuator, swaybar endlinks, hvac/display not operating and the glove box not opening are the main issues I've noticed with TSX's.
Not sure about when to change a timing belt or waterpump in these. Curious as well since I recently picked one up.
