How many quarts of oil are in a 2007 Acura TL?
The amount of engine oil needed for a 2007 Acura TL depends on the engine installed. The base TL with a 3.2L V6 requires 4.5 quarts, while the TL Type-S with a 3.5L V6 requires 5.0 quarts, both including a new oil filter. The exact figure can vary slightly by service procedure, so always confirm with the dipstick after refilling.
Engine options in the 2007 TL
For the 2007 model year, Acura offered two configurations of the TL. The standard TL used a 3.2-liter V6, while the sportier TL Type-S used a 3.5-liter V6. Each engine has its own official oil capacity, so identifying your trim is important when planning an oil change.
Oil capacity by model
The following figures reflect the oil capacity for a typical oil change with a new filter. Use the exact amount that matches your engine variant.
- Base TL (3.2L V6): 4.5 quarts
- TL Type-S (3.5L V6): 5.0 quarts
Note: If you drain the oil and reuse the same filter, the total volume may be slightly different. Always verify the final level with the dipstick after refilling to the full mark.
How to perform an oil change and check level
Proceeding with an oil change requires using the correct volume for your engine and following proper steps to ensure a complete and safe refill. The required total depends on the engine in your TL, so plan accordingly.
- Warm the engine slightly, then park on level ground and place a drain pan beneath the oil pan.
- Carefully loosen and remove the drain plug; allow the old oil to drain completely.
- Remove the old oil filter and install a new compatible filter.
- Reinstall the drain plug and snug it to the specified torque.
- Pour in the new oil in stages, using the correct total for your engine (4.5 quarts for the 3.2L base or 5.0 quarts for the 3.5L Type-S).
- Start the engine, run it for about a minute, then turn it off and wait a few minutes. Check the dipstick and add oil as needed to reach the full line.
Note: Always refer to the owner's manual for the recommended oil grade and capacity, and if you’re unsure about the correct amount, consult a dealership or a trusted mechanic.
