The 2014 Acura RDX' 3.5 liter V6 engine is equipped with 7 US quarts of 0W-20 with a filter. Oil and filter changes should be scheduled every 7,500-10,000 miles or 12 months if using fully synthetic lubricants, or every 3,000-5,000 miles or 6 months, if filling with conventional oil. The advantages of using synthetic vs conventional products include better lubrication among moving parts, a longer interval between service appointments and enhanced effectiveness under adverse weather conditions. A motor oil with a thinner viscosity moves more easily in colder temperatures, coating engine components efficiently and providing better protection against friction and corrosion. Cost for a lube and filter job ranges between $170-$230 in parts and labor.

It takes 4.5 quarts and not 7 quarts.

The 2014 Acura RDX uses Premium-grade 0W-20 detergent oil with an API Certification Seal on the container. It is recommended to use Acura's Genuine Motor Oil.
