Oil change Acura MDX. How to change your synthetic motor oil and filter.

[@John923T]

Great Vid on the Filter & Oil Change, I just recently purchased a 2005 Acura (76,000 low milage) MDX and your video will save me some cash. I am a newbie to the mechanic portion of maintenance and guys like you really help. Simple, easy, and your camera angles are on point. Oil changes prices have increased and an average jiffy lube change is 75 - 100.

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Glad it helped! It is nice to hear that people appreciate my camera work. Heck yeah, doing the job yourself and knowing it done right is always a good thing. Plus saving $40 doing it yourself is a bonus as well. Thanks for checking out my channel. Josh

2008 acura mdx radio and navigation is not coming on

[@tsragc]

Use a new crush washer on the oil plug?

[@jojosrecipe3495]

Thanks for sharing this very helpful

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

No problem, glad the video was helpful to you.

[@horswmn97]

The oil filter does NOT just come off like that - you must have a filter wrench to unscrew it. I’ve changed oil filters many times and a filter wrench is a major necessity

[@eliasgarcia6248]

Really good video, just want to point out that you will need a high torque ratchet to remove the oil plug.

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Thanks for the tip!

[@con5tant]

You should never use a torque ratchet to loosen anything

[@laserillusionstech]

If too tight, all you need is more leverage. A breaker bar will do.

[@bob3k-ig9sj]

Use a ratchet and not a angular one just a straight one. if some room tap it with a small hammer if no room then get a dumbell bar and put it over the ratchet handle for more torque to remove BUT not to tighten the nut.

[@n3tfury]

@@bob3k-ig9sj Going forward you should never have to do that as you'll be doing it hand tight.

[@MrJohnnebgood]

Nice video! Now what is a good recommendation for type of oil? 2006 Acura MDX Has over 250,000 miles TIA

[@roshawngiles5471]

Thanks for saving some money! 🎉🎉😊

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

No problem!!

[@ajhorfilla2326]

Hmm seems doable, only problem is where to dispose the used oil.

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

You can dispose old engine oil at any auto parts store.

[@seanjohn1052]

Nicely done, playa

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Thanks playa!

[@messiah8824]

Thanks for the help

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Happy to help

[@slikkazz212]

Whats the name of that tool? Also what size do i need to take off the oil cap? I have a 2011 mdx

[@evangrafner8633]

It’s a socket wrench

[@evangrafner8633]

17 mm

[@Sam-bp8gk]

Nice job!!!

[@jojosrecipe3495]

So you didn’t need the jack to hold the car up to change the oil 👀

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

It is not necessary to jack to car up. You can easily reach everything from the front bumper area.

[@jojosrecipe3495]

@@JDMRightHandDrive thank you so much I need my oil change so this is so helpful

[@alexandrahernandez132]

I have a 2002 can I put 5w-40?

[@TheBearsjunkie]

used jack to raise it? or did it without it?

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

I can usually change the oil without a jack or ramps. Everything's pretty accessible to reach.

[@cindylazaro1253]

@@JDMRightHandDrive I tried doing it without raising it but I’m claustrophobic af 😭 I couldn’t do it I felt like I couldn’t breathe lol! But thank you for the great video you saved me $50 lol

👌

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Thanks you!

[@tooththrhr]

Yea i guess you dont need to jack it up if you weigh 100 lbs.

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Not true, I'm 6'1" and weight 205 pounds and can easily reach it. Thanks for watching.

[@johnnykool1227]

The Acura dealership in San Diego quoted me an oil change on a 2009 MDX would cost $129.95 plus tax. WTF has this world come to!

[@JDMRightHandDrive]

Wow that is a crazy price. I remember just a few years ago dealerships offering oil changes for around $35 and using that service as a way to bring people in to up sell additional services. Our Mazda and Subaru dealers both charge $110 as well. Now it is definitely worth doing the oil change at home yourself and saving $70.

[@Lilqtpieqt]

Move out of California lmao it's 70$ where I live

[@caseymckenzie8065]

My local jiffy lube said 150 I couldn’t even try to think of paying thst

[@Lilqtpieqt]

@@caseymckenzie8065 i got a tweaker do it and it only costed me 50$

[@maeghandelarosa5188]

No one noticed ypur R32 lol

[@cutthroat814]

I must have missed something. Where is the R32? My 2004 VW R32 was one of my favorite rides. The exhaust note was perfect.

[@morrismurray9829]

Fram, one of the worst oil filters you can purchase. Try a Wix next time.

[@joshpointongunz3136]

Never use frame filters they are legit trash straight cardboard
