In this video, I change the oil and filter in my 2017 Acura NSX, and reset the oil life.

I remove the engine cover, oil cap, underbody panel (with 10mm and T-30 tools), drain the oil with a 17mm socket, replace the crush washers, torque the oil drain plugs, change the filter, and add 7 quarts of 0w-40 oil. I then check the oil level, add oil and then reset the oil life monitor in the car.

Sadly, my garage cat, buddy and best friend Girlie passed away after I recorded this video. She wanted my attention during the recording and I'm glad I recorded some of it and put it at the end of this video. This video is dedicated to her. Rest In Peace, Girlie, 2015-2021

From Eric Crowder:
The dry-sump oil pump has 5 scavenge sections. The front most bolt drains the “chain box” section which is well vented, so no blub-blub. One of the bottom bolts drains the turbo charger(s) oil drain, which is its own scavenge section. I don’t remember if it blubs or not. Of course the tank is no blub because you first removed the oil fill cap. The Bolt on the front of the oil pump drains the oil supply hose from the tank to the pressure side of the pump, so no blub. The 3 remaining bolts drain the 3 crank case sections. These sections are completely sealed from each other, so they are basically air tight. One section is the oil return for just one pair of cylinders, and it’s completely sealed from the other pairs of cylinders. Because of how these crank sections are sealed, there’s a lot of blub-blub. This is a good thing. The NSX engine is really a race car engine that’s dialed back for the street. This is the way a properly designed dry sump system works for racing.
