Acura recommends changing your 2017 NSX’s oil at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your NSX in the above table. Your NSX may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You might need an oil change more frequently than what’s recommended by Acura if you regularly haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, adventure off-road, or drive at low speeds for long distances. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Acura NSX. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.
