Hi all,

I have seen some hardcore enthusiasts tilting towards either Amsoil or Red Line 0W-20 Engine oils and transmission liquids on the TL, TLX, RLX forums, but dont see threads about this in the MDX section. Please dont tell me MDX are driven by people who dont care about engine oils or ATF's and rely on Stealterships to do their oil changes.

I am debating between Amsoil and Red Line for both the Engine Oil and the ATF.
For the engine oil it has to be the 0W-20 and for the ATF i need your opinion.
I've been reading on the TL section where people use the Red Line Racing ATF (Type F) (link) transmission oil, and maybe a mix of D4 as well.
Not sure if that is ideal for the SUV's.
A local dealer here sells the Red Line D4, is that good for the MDX? I realize that Acura recommends DW-1 for the ATF's. So why the love for Racing ATF (Type F) series?
Anyways, whats your take on both the engine oil and the ATF oil either by redline or the amsoil.
And yes, i do have a local bumper to bumper dealer selling Amsoil SAE 0W-20 Signature Series 100% Synthetic Motor Oil. (link)
Not sure if its good, or should i pick up redline. I am firm on either picking either of this, I have done my research on the Mobil 1 and other brands, i am beat about the amsoil or the redline, just need your opinion on this. Please guide.
