My Acura 3.2 TL is supposed to be serviced 7500 miles (for oil changes). I got a letter from my dealer to do it in 3750 miles...<br><br>Is this just a marketing push or is there any value in me trying to do it on a 3 month schedule?<br><br>Thanks!

Hi akn,<br><br> Our '93 Vigor has been serviced every 6000 Km (3750 miles) since day one. It now has over 186K km and it works GREAT! Usually the way it works is that every second service is just an oil, filter and wash (sometimes more). It's up to you. I'd go for the shorter inervals though. Hope this helps!<br><br>CW

Its my understanding that Acura says a 7500 mile service (every 7500 miles). My dealer recommends an oil change in between (every 3750 miles). They did more at 7500 than just an oil change and even more at 15000. They also said the first oil change at 3750 was important since the initial oil was some special type to help break in the engine and should be changed out at 3750.<br><br>I don't know if all this is correct - just telling you what I was told.

Hello, sorry to reply this e-mail this late. But I have always do my oil change @ 3,750 miles no matter what. It may cost you more, but it will make it more smooth for you to drive. I hoep this helps.<br><br>--CKL--
