For the 2012 Acura MDX, you'll need 4.5 quarts of 5w-20 oil. Quality oil is crucial for the engine's performance. Neglecting oil changes can lead to engine problems like a burning smell or knocking noise. It's recommended to change the oil every 5,000 to 10,000 miles to prevent issues and maintain good gas mileage. Failure to do so can result in engine damage.
