How Long Is the First Maintenance for the Buick Envision?
2 Answers
The first maintenance for the Buick Envision is scheduled at 6 months. The first maintenance refers to the initial service after the vehicle has been driven. The Buick Envision is a mid-size 5-door, 5-seat SUV with the following body dimensions: length 4694mm, width 1839mm, height 1686mm, and a wheelbase of 2750mm. It features a front-engine, front-wheel-drive layout, with a MacPherson strut independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension. The Buick Envision is equipped with a 1.5T turbocharged engine and a 7-speed dual-clutch transmission, delivering a maximum power of 124 kW at 5600 rpm and a maximum torque of 250 Nm between 1700 to 4400 rpm.
For the Buick Envision's first maintenance, focus on two key indicators: either after driving 5,000 kilometers or 6 months after taking delivery of the vehicle, whichever comes first. Make sure to visit the 4S dealership promptly. I personally went when my mileage hit 4,800 km, and the technician discovered a slightly clogged air filter. Free maintenance items include oil and filter replacement, full vehicle electrical system inspection, tire rotation, and other basic services. However, if you've upgraded to full synthetic oil, the service advisor might recommend an early inspection at 3,000 km. Don't underestimate the importance of the first maintenance—during the initial six months, the engine generates significant metal debris from break-in. Timely oil changes can extend engine life by at least 20,000-30,000 km. Also, have the technician check the brake system and infotainment software updates; early detection of these potential issues can save you a lot of hassle.
