I purchased a 2022 CPO Acura MDX Type S back in July and a CPO car comes with a 100,000 mile power train warranty. I asked service about doing my own oil changes and how that would effect warranty in case I ever need to use it. They simply said that as long as I have documentation of it being done or that I purchase oil and filter that I should be fine. That’s great but it got me thinking of I buy oil and filters on sale or in bulk when I find it then that leads to other documentation issues. I took the Acura in for it one free oil change and of course left disappointed in the sloppy work. I had oil everywhere! I got home and smelled the oil. It was all over all the shields under the car, the exhaust, even spots on the lift gate from driving. Smear marks all across the top of the front bumper and the door.
A- bring my own supplies to the dealer and pay them the labor so that everything is in their system.
B- just do it myself and hope I don’t need warranty or get questioned
C- bring my own supplies to Indy mechanic and at least I’d have a paper trail.
