The oil’s viscosity or weight is
provided on the container’s label.
Select the oil for your vehicle
according to this chart.
5W-20 oil is formulated for year-
round protection of your Acura, to
improve cold weather starting, and
to help your engine use less fuel.
You may use a synthetic motor oil if
it meets the same requirements
given for a conventional motor oil: it
displays the API Certification Seal,
and it is the proper weight as shown
on the chart. When using synthetic
oil, you must follow the oil and filter
change intervals given in the
maintenance schedule.
Your Acura does not require any oil
additives. Additives may adversely
affect your engine’s or transmission’s
performance and durability.
