second owner to 2011 RDX

I got my 2011 RDX 2 years ago. I absolutely love this car. I am fairly certain the first owner didn't abuse it. One owner and all maintenance was done at a dealership. I now have 160K on it. I'm debating on getting a new one or keeping this one going. The turbo ring is ovalled but it is tight. I had to adjust it soon after getting it. I was getting the codes.

Should I concern myself with the turbo replacement? and are there minor mods I can do?

Thanks,
Tom

If that's the only issue, and the frame is relatively rust-free, she's a keeper for sure.

There are some other minor issues you can expect to have at that mileage, but they're fairly well documented and usually not difficult to fix. Things like small oil leaks from some of the gaskets dry-rotting.

I'll hit 205k on my RDX on my way home from work today.
