Question Hello Everyone!

I am currently shopping around for a new car, I have taken an interest in the Acura TSX. I am planning on getting one pre-owned (it's better for my budget)can you guys tell me what is the acceptable milage on a 2009? Is it 10,000 per year??

Industry avg says 15k a year. I'd look more into how the car was taken care of vs how many miles are on it. Of course lower miles are better but I'd look at service reports, frequency of oil changes etc. Those count more to me.

Early TSX had a premature brake worn issue. I have a 2011 and I am not sure how it was resolved.

There's TSB's for it. Forgot the exact numbers but it should be free under warranty. If you're buying from a dealer, ask to see if the TSB for the front brakes juddering/squealing was done. They replaced the brake pads with better material and will resurface the rotors if it needs to be done.

There's a sticky in the forum to find out any and all TSBs related to our cars...sorted by year too I believe.

I would aim for a used 2010 vs. a 2009 if I were you...
