There is no 2007 Acura Type-S model; if you meant the RSX Type-S, it takes 4.5 quarts of engine oil with a filter.
In more detail, Acura used the Type-S badge on different cars during its history, but the 2007 lineup did not include a Type-S variant. The best-known 2000s Type-S was the RSX Type-S (produced 2002–2006), which uses a 4.5-quart oil capacity with filter. Always verify with your owner's manual or dealer to confirm the exact specification for your vehicle’s engine and year.
Model-specific oil capacity
Before listing, note that oil capacity varies by model and engine. The following reflects the best-known capacity for the RSX Type-S and similar engines.
- RSX Type-S (2002–2006), engine K20A3: oil capacity 4.5 quarts with oil filter
- Other Acura models that used a Type-S badge (if any) may have different capacities; always consult the specific owner's manual or service bulletin for your vehicle
Concluding, verify your exact model and engine code to ensure you use the correct oil quantity and service interval for your car. If in doubt, have the oil capacity confirmed by a certified technician or refer to the official documentation for your vehicle.
Summary
The 2007 Acura Type-S does not exist; the RSX Type-S, the closest predecessor, requires 4.5 quarts of oil with a filter. Always check your owner’s manual or with a dealer to confirm the precise capacity for your specific vehicle and engine code.
