First oil change

At what mileage is the first oil change due on the TSX?

If oil needs to be added before that distance is reached, what oil is recommended by Acura?

What weight oil does the TSX use?

The full maintenance schedule is posted in our FAQ section (post #6):http://www.acura-tsx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=12877

It's a good idea to check your oil every week or every other week during the break in procedure. I burned a little oil but nothing substantial. The car comes with 5w30 but don't worry about what brand it is because you'll only be adding a small amount if any.

There's more good discussion on the subject in this post: http://www.acura-tsx.com/forums/showthread.php?t=3512&
