Servicing your Acura at a dealership ensures peace of mind. Acura-trained technicians use genuine OEM parts, providing optimal performance and longevity. You’ll also benefit from the latest diagnostic tools, ensuring your vehicle runs smoothly and efficiently.

Your vehicle will prompt you when it's time to replace the cabin and engine air filters, typically every 15,000 miles or one year. A dirty engine air filter can reduce airflow, affecting performance and fuel efficiency, while an overdue cabin filter can harbor bacteria and mold, compromising air quality.

Signs that your fuel system may need cleaning include decreased fuel efficiency, power loss, rough idling, and hard starting. A fuel induction service, recommended every 30,000 miles, can remove carbon deposits that accumulate in the engine and restore performance.
