Hello everyone, I just bought a 2004 TL with 66,800 miles. I used to have a 1995 Pontiac Trans AM, I moved and sold it and was looking for something to save me gas money and I found this Anthracite Metallic TL for 19k, I drove the car and fell in love with it. It didnt come with a owners manual so im trying to figure out how to work everything. The screen in the guage cluster, I think its called the MID says Service Past Due A13 I was wondering if someone could please tell me what is needed for this service, being a previous owner of an american made car, I have become very mechanically inclined and want to do all work myself, thanks in advance!!

Maintenance Minder A Scheduled Maintenance
Recommended service for your 2005 [2004] Acura TL:
Replace engine oil*1
*1: If the message, "SERVICE DUE NOW" does not appear more than 12 months after the display is reset, change the engine oil every year.
Independent of the maintenance messages in the multi-information display, replace the brake fluid every 3 years.
Inspect idle speed every 160,000 miles (256,000 km).
Adjust the valves during services A, B, 1, 2, or 3 if they are noisy.
Maintenance Minder 1 Scheduled Maintenance
Rotate tires
Maintenance Minder 3 Scheduled Maintenance
Replace transmission fluid: Driving in mountainous areas at very low vehicle speeds results in higher transmission temperatures. This requires transmission fluid changes more frequently than recommended by the Maintenance Minder. If you regularly drive your vehicle under these conditions, have the transmission fluid changed at 60,000 miles (100,000 km), then every 30,000 miles (48,000 km).
