2006 tl

Picked up this beauty for 3800 Yesterday.... 153K miles on it... all services records from Acura, timing belt water pump etc were done at 102K..... Brakes done at 95K. oil changes etc.... one owner technically, the original owner sold to nephew who took care of it. I noticed it was a little low on Coolant (will head to Honda service to get a bottle and top off) shocks and struts work... the only issue i have is the Struts on the hood (which are pretty inexpensive to replace off Amazon. Car runs and drives very well..... Anything else i should look at to make sure this car runs me another 150K miles? When should i revisit the timing belt again? Thank You!

its an exclusive NYC thing lmao, its call bumper protector or bumper guard so when people parallel park in the city won't fack your bumpers up and they come in varieties like a blanket cover the entire bumpers or trim piece like body side molding. Its pretty common for people tapping (love tap or slam depend on the driver mood) your bumper during parallel park.

If you living in NYC and own a car it can cause headache since either you pays for underground parking garage with the cost around $1200/month (it get more expensive if you live near Manhattan) or you can park on the street with 2% chances of finding a parking spot on the side of the road and risking some one will mess your bumper up. During driving around city you will be happy if you can travel faster than 35 MPH lol.





OP your timing belt is good until you reach 210k miles, I wouldn't worry about it. instead just drain and fill your AFT with DW-1 to prolong the life of the transmission.
