In the 2017 Acura RDX, the recommended transmission fluid is Dexron ViATF with a capacity of 10 quarts. Just like oil, transmission fluid is a lubricant that helps prevent heat-induced damage to the transmission components. The average cost for a transmission fluid change in your Acura is around $110 to $130 for labor, with parts priced at $90. It is advised to have the transmission fluid replaced every 60,000 miles. Warning signs that signal the need for a transmission fluid change include grinding noises from the transmission, difficulty shifting gears, slipping gears, unexpected surges, and a delay in movement after shifting into gear.
I am interested in purchasing transmission fluid to top up my car, which appears to be running low. I'm unsure about which type and brand to choose.
The Acura RDX from 2017 requires type-H automatic transmission fluid for optimal performance.
