Your Acura combines an oil-life percentage with letter and number codes. Read the complete message rather than treating every service visit as a basic oil change.
The percentage estimates remaining engine-oil life based on vehicle use. A “Maintenance Due Soon” message gives the owner time to plan, while “Due Now” or “Past Due” calls for quicker action.
Code A calls for engine-oil replacement. Code B adds the oil filter and a broader inspection of brakes, steering, suspension, fluids, exhaust components, and related systems.
Number codes identify additional items such as tire rotation, filters, transmission fluid, spark plugs, coolant, rear differential fluid where equipped, and brake fluid.
Use these two resources to understand the Acura maintenance system before opening the schedule for a specific model.

Code Reference
Look up codes A, B, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, and 7 before scheduling an Acura service appointment.
Each model guide explains the Maintenance Minder system, common service items, mileage references, and maintenance considerations for that Acura.
Three-Row Premium SUV
The MDX often handles the longest and most demanding schedules in the Acura lineup, including family travel, heavy passenger use, winter commuting, and trips into the foothills or mountains.
Its maintenance plan can include engine oil and filter service, tire rotation, brake inspections, transmission fluid, coolant, spark plugs, brake fluid, and rear differential fluid on applicable SH-AWD models.
Compact Premium SUV
The RDX fits daily commuting, city errands, and Front Range travel in a more compact package than the MDX. Regular tire, brake, fluid, and filter checks become especially important when that routine includes winter roads or frequent stop-and-go traffic.
SH-AWD-equipped RDX models can also display maintenance subcode 6 for rear differential fluid, so the full code shown by the vehicle matters.
Subcompact Premium SUV
The ADX serves drivers who want Acura comfort and utility in a smaller, city-friendly SUV. Its Maintenance Minder adjusts service timing around actual use rather than forcing every owner into the same fixed schedule.
Short local trips, heavy traffic, dusty conditions, and low-speed mountain driving can affect filters and fluid timing, so ADX owners should follow both the displayed code and any severe-condition guidance.
Premium Sport Compact
The Integra combines compact dimensions with a more driver-focused character, making regular oil, tire, brake, and fluid service important for preserving the response owners expect from the car.
Maintenance requirements can differ by transmission and configuration. Owners of manual-transmission or higher-performance variants should confirm the exact instructions for their vehicle in the owner’s manual.
Review current service offers, explore Fisher Acura’s service support, or schedule the maintenance identified by the vehicle.
A vehicle used mainly for steady highway travel can create a different service pattern than one used for short cold-weather trips, heavy traffic, dusty roads, or slow mountain driving. Drivers traveling between Boulder and Denver on US 36 may accumulate mileage quickly, while CO 119 travel between Boulder and Longmont can mix commuting with frequent local stops.
Winter temperatures, road-treatment residue, foothills elevation changes, and trips toward Nederland or other mountain communities can also increase the importance of tire condition, brakes, fluids, battery health, filters, wipers, and regular inspections. Follow the Maintenance Minder, but do not ignore changing conditions or concerns that appear before a code is displayed.
Fisher Acura supports MDX, RDX, ADX, and Integra owners from its service center at 6025 Arapahoe Road in Boulder. Review the displayed code, check current offers, and schedule the service the Acura is requesting.
