vtm-4 light came on my 2002 acura mdx at 210000 miles. i bought used at 60000 miles. i went 150000 miles without chaning the differential oil. vtm-4 all wheel drive for some hondas and acuras are front wheel biased and the rear wheels rarely gets used. but with new acuras shaw all wheel drive it's a different. luckily after i changed the differential the warning light went away and the car is working just fine.

That is good

Does that same rear differential oil apply for the 17 Acura RDX?

[@JNBTuning]

Possibly but to be sure work with your local Acura dealership parts professionals. Good luck!
