Checking and Changing the Oil in Your Buick and GMC Vehicles
GMC and Buick vehicles are known for many things: their classic looks, a wide array of customization options, and unbeatable performance on the road. We know that our customers want to make sure that their GMC and Buick vehicles last as long as possible, which is why we stress the importance of regular oil changes and routine maintenance. You have questions about changing the oil on your car, truck or SUV and we have answers.
Q: WHY DO I NEED TO CHANGE THE OIL IN MY CAR OR TRUCK?
A: Motor oil lubricates all the moving parts in the engine. This prevents any friction that would happen if motor oil wasn't in your car. Without motor oil, engine parts would grind against each other and cause wear and tear on the components. The longer you go without an oil change, the thicker the oil gets. This is because the oil collects contaminants, metal fragments and grime as it goes through the engine block.
If you allow your oil to get sludgy, buildup will occur around crankshafts, valves and pistons. The longer this persists, the more likely you are to experience damage that may require expensive engine repairs. In some cases, engine parts will no longer usable and you will need to be replace them completely.
Expensive engine repairs can be avoided by changing the oil in your GMC and Buick regularly. When you get new oil, it is contaminant-free and improves the performance of your GMC and Buick vehicle. It also extends the life of your engine, increases your MPG and decreases the harmful emissions from your car.

Q: WHEN DO I NEED TO CHANGE THE OIL IN GMC and Buick VEHICLES?
A: We're glad you asked. Many GM models are equipped with an Oil Life Monitoring System, which will alert you when it's time for an oil change. While newer GMC and Buick models can go longer between oil changes, older models will need to be serviced more often. It's best to reference your owner's manual for the right oil change interval for your car, truck or SUV.
