What should I expect buying a 2007 acura tl type-s with 68000

New to this acura forum and hopefully a proud new owner in the coming days. I'm looking into buying a 2007 acura tl type s with around 68000 miles, car is in insane condition garage kept and nearly no rust. What type of maintenance I'm I going to be looking at, I know the timing belt and water pump are due but other than that what should I be prepared to do in the near future, suspension wise, mechanical and any other maintenance. Also any know issues with this model. Any advice is welcome even unrelated to what I've asked about. Thanks

Manual or automatic transmission?

At only 68,000 miles the only thing you should need to fuss with maintenance wise is the fluid in the transmission (do what is called a 3x3 ATF swap with nothing other than Honda DW-1 fluid) and the 3rd and 4th gear pressure switches; the suspension is probably good to go for an easy 100,000 more miles.

at that mileage the only thing you have to worry about is 3x3 ATF, I bought a TL with 48k miles on the clock and so far no issue. I only change the ATF.

Thumbs up Ditto

Timing belt should be fine to 100K, just 3X3 the trans.
Clean and treat the leather seats.



Enjoy!
