The 2009 Acura MDX uses 5w-20 oil with a capacity of 4.3 liters. It's important to change the oil regularly to prevent engine issues. It's recommended to do this every 5,000 to 10,000 miles. Using high-quality oil is crucial for optimal engine performance. Neglecting to change the oil can lead to engine failure. A common sign of trouble is a strong burning smell, which should be addressed promptly to avoid potential hazards like engine damage or poor gas mileage. Additionally, unusual sounds like knocking may indicate engine problems that require attention.
