How often should you get an oil change?

• Follow the intervals in your owner’s manual; many modern Acura vehicles recommend oil service based on driving conditions and the vehicle’s maintenance minder.

• Regular dealer inspections help track oil condition and adjust service frequency to your actual driving habits, maximizing engine life and efficiency.
• Keeping records of dealer-performed maintenance also supports warranty claims and improves resale value.

What type of oil does an 2025 Acura TLX take?

• Park Place Acura uses factory-recommended full synthetic motor oil that meets Acura’s specifications for turbocharged engines.
• Full synthetic oil protects turbo components, resists thermal breakdown, and maintains viscosity across the engine’s operating RPM range.
• Exact viscosity and specification are listed in the owner’s manual; our factory-trained technicians always use the correct oil to preserve performance and warranty coverage.
• Using recommended oil at a certified dealership offers peace of mind and reduces the risk of premature engine issues compared with non-approved products.

How much oil does an 2025 Acura TLX need?

• Oil capacity varies slightly by engine configuration and whether the filter is changed; the 3.0L V6 turbo typically requires approximately 5.5–6.0 quarts when replacing the filter.
• Park Place Acura technicians measure and top off to the exact factory-specified level during service to ensure proper oil pressure and turbo protection.
• Always confirm exact capacity in the owner’s manual or with our service advisors; correct fill levels prevent both under- and over-fill risks.
• Dealer service guarantees the precise fill and documented service history that maintains warranty eligibility and long-term engine reliability.
