The 2014 Acura RDX is equipped with a timing belt and regular maintenance is essential to avoid engine issues. It is recommended to replace the air filter every 15,000 to 30,000 miles, change the coolant every 60,000 miles, and swap out spark plugs every 100,000 miles unless they are copper, which should be replaced every 30,000 miles. Neglecting these maintenance tasks can result in various problems such as oil leaks, loose gaskets, and spark plug malfunctions. It is crucial to address these issues promptly to prevent more serious consequences like engine overheating, which can lead to fires and potential car explosions.
