Doing oil changes at home is a great way to cut costs on car expenses. A 2005
Acura TL
requires Advanced Full Synthetic 5W-20 Motor Oil for optimal engine performance.
While you’re changing the oil, you may want to consider checking a few other items off the list:
  • Replace engine oil and oil filter
  • Rotate tires
  • Inspect front and rear brakes
  • Check parking brake adjustment
  • Visually inspect tie rod ends, steering gearbox, and boots
  • Visually inspect suspension components
  • Visually inspect drive shaft boots
  • Visually inspect brake hoses and lines
  • Visually inspect all fluid levels and condition of fluids
  • Visually inspect the exhaust system
  • Visually inspect fuel lines and connections
