Oil system flushing is never a bad idea, but to find out if it's necessary, you'll need to post more info about your car. What model? What year? How many miles on it? Any idea how well maintained it was, when it's last oil change was?

Re: Does my Acura need oil system flushing?

Yes, oil flushing is helpful to get rid of the gunk out of your engine. You can then have an oil change and mix it up with an oil additive to maximise your engine oil. I am using the Valvoline Syntec, alongside the moly-graphene based Everglide as my oil additive. Graphene is very good for older cars, so this combination works perfectly for my 98 Acura. Let us know how it goes!
