2004 TL 6spd @ 155000 KMs. What pre-cautionary maintenance to perform?

Hi Guys!

Like title has indicated. I have reached 155000 KMs on my 04 TL 6spd. I got it used, so I honestly don't know or won't trust 100% to what the previous owner has done on the car. What are some pre-cautionary maintenance to perform to keep my car running healthy for another 100000-150000 KMs?

When do people replace the Timing Belt, Water Pump, Tensioner, Thermostat, etc on these TLs? I know Ebay has a full kit to do it, but not sure if there are things that I should replace as well that doesn't include in the typical list.

What are some parts that normally fails at this time that I should keep an eye on?

Regardless, I will do some tune-ups like spark plugs, filter cleaning, coolant flush, tranny fluid change.

Thank you in advance for anyone with good inputs and personal experience and knowledge.

Thank you again

That's right around 97,000 miles. I'd say you should do a brake fluid flush as well.

Recently (over the past 2 weeks), my car tends to require more effort to start-up in the morning. The weather has already warmed up (around 5-15 degrees celcius). On 3 out of 5 starts, when I turn my keys to ignite my car, it takes more effort or longer before it starts up. What indication could that be giving me?
