Buying Drivetrain Parts for a 2008 Acura MDX

On this vehicle, the drivetrain system moves power from transmission to wheels through axles, CV joints, driveshafts, differentials and wheel-end hardware.

  • Confirm you have the 3.7L V6 engine — every part on this page is matched to it.
  • Read the notes on each row for position, trim and spec qualifiers before you order.
  • Where labor overlaps, replace the differential or transfer-case fluid with any axle or seal job while everything is already open.
  • Cross-reference the manufacturer part number against your old part or a service-manual listing.

Start with the largest groups on this page: CV Axle and Transfer Case Fluid .

How many drivetrain parts fit the 2008 Acura MDX?

Our catalog currently lists 78 drivetrain parts for the 2008 Acura MDX across 16 subcategories and 18 brands, covering the 3.7L V6 engine. Each part is matched to the engine(s) it fits.

What should I replace at the same time?

Where labor overlaps, replace the differential or transfer-case fluid with any axle or seal job while everything is already open.

What do the market flags (US, CA, MX) on each part mean?

They show the market for which the manufacturer published application data for that part — where the vehicle was first sold, not where the part was made. If your 2008 Acura MDX was originally sold in the US, the safest choice is a part marked for the US market.
