How many kilometers for the first maintenance of the Envision S?
2 Answers
The first maintenance for the Buick Envision is scheduled when the vehicle reaches 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. Subsequent maintenance follows a cycle of every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, or as indicated by the oil monitoring system. According to the vehicle maintenance manual, the warranty covers the first 3 years or 100,000 kilometers. The first maintenance includes free oil and oil filter replacement, along with basic vehicle inspections. Additional details: 1. The manufacturer's maintenance manual specifies maintenance every 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, or as prompted by the oil life monitoring system. However, many 4S dealers recommend the first maintenance at 3,000 kilometers or 3 months. If 3 months have passed but the vehicle hasn't reached 3,000 kilometers, it's advisable to wait until 3,000 kilometers, but it's best not to exceed 6 months. 2. From the perspective of vehicle care, earlier first maintenance is better than delayed maintenance because the first batch of oil tends to contain more impurities, which can be harmful to the engine. If the vehicle is used in good conditions, waiting until 5,000 kilometers for the first maintenance is also acceptable.
I remember when I first picked up my Enclave S, the 4S dealership reminded me that the first maintenance should be done at either 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, whichever comes first. I went in at 4,800 kilometers mainly for an oil change, oil filter replacement, and a full vehicle inspection. During the break-in period, there’s more metal debris in the engine, so timely maintenance helps protect the engine and extend its lifespan. After that, maintenance is required every 10,000 kilometers, which is easy to remember. I suggest keeping track of your mileage after picking up the car and not delaying maintenance to avoid affecting the warranty or causing issues. Now my car runs smoothly with stable fuel consumption.
