How Long Has It Been Since Your Last Buick Oil Change?

The oil in your Buick lubricates the moving components and ensures that your engine is clean, lubricated, and running efficiently. A regular Buick oil change from the qualified technicians at your Buick dealer will improve your vehicle’s engine performance and fuel consumption, and your Buick will be on the road for longer.

Advice From Your Buick Dealer: How Long Has It Been Since Your Last Buick Oil Change?

The Importance of Oil and Filter Replacements

An oil and filter replacement is one of the most critical maintenance services to ensure that your vehicle’s engine performs optimally. The oil lubricates the engine and reduces heat and friction, ensuring that the components run smoothly. Over time the oil gets contaminated and breaks down. When engine oil is old and dirty, it can’t perform the task of lubrication, protection, and cooling.

The result is increased friction that causes wear, overheating and high fuel consumption. Regular oil and filter replacements at the factory-recommended intervals are crucial to prevent engine damage, increase fuel efficiency, and ensure optimal engine performance.

Oil Replacement Intervals

Generally, the recommended oil and filter replacement intervals for older vehicles are every 7,500 to 10,000 miles or every six months. However, newer Buick models have an Oil Life Monitoring System (OLMS) that continuously monitors your vehicle’s speed, engine temperature, engine revolutions, and mileage to determine when an oil replacement is due.

When the OLMS light goes on, it’s time for an oil and filter replacement. Check your vehicle’s owner’s manual for the recommended oil and filter replacement intervals or speak to your Buick technician for assistance.

The Correct Grade of Oil

Using the correct oil with the proper grade and viscosity is as essential as regularly replacing the oil. We recommend full synthetic oil, including ACDelco Gold Conventional Oil, ACDelco dexos1 Full Synthetic, and Mobil 1 Full Synthetic Oil.

These high-quality oils offer superior lubrication and engine protection. The oil information for your Buick is in your owner’s manual, or ask your Buick technician to assist you with choosing the correct oil for your specific model and engine.
