Please someone give me the amount of oil that I should place into my 2004 Acura MDX with an oil filter change as well. I am batting zero on my other questions on the Nav section. I hope I get a response back on this one. Thank you Merry Christmas Lou |

Try the Acura MDX Navigation System Questions discussion for specific questions about your nav. Happy holidays to you too!

Replying to: ljp6 (Dec 21, 2007 7:15 am) The 2004 engine is still 3.5L but was tuned differently to increase horsepower. I don't believe the oil sump volume was changed. Anyway, looks like folks are adding 4.5 quarts during changes of the 2004 MDX oil. Perhaps some other on-line manual sites can tell you.

Replying to: mecheng1 (May 01, 2008 6:33 am) I, too, run synthetic in all my vehicles. Probably due to the perception that "synthetic is better" or at least that's what the Mobil 1 commercials tell us. That being said, I really wonder if there is any benefit if you change your oil every 3-4 thousand miles religiously?
