About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Acura, so check with your technician first. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Acura SLX transmission fluid leak? Yes. Acura SLX transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems.
