What is the 2002 Acura MDX oil type?

I bought a used 2002 Acura MDX for $750. So far, I haven’t had any issues, but it appears to burn through oil rather quickly. As a result, I’m going to top off the oil whenever it needs it. What type of oil do I need for a 2002 Acura MDX?

If you spent $750 on a used luxury SUV, you’re probably doing alright! Even with a bit of oil burn, it’s still a bargain. If you want to top off the oil in your 2002
Acura MDX
, the oil type is either SAE 5W-30 or 10W-30.
Which oil you choose depends on the climate where you live. If you’re in a colder climate, opt for the 5W-30. If you live in a place that doesn’t get below freezing, the 10W-30 option should suffice.
If the repairs for your car are more expensive than what your MDX is worth, you can start socking away money by comparing car insurance rates on the
