2 Answers
The maintenance interval for the Buick LaCrosse is 2 years or 60,000 kilometers, with different intervals for specific components. Below are the detailed maintenance intervals for the Buick LaCrosse: 1. Under normal driving conditions: Under normal driving conditions, the Buick LaCrosse has fixed maintenance intervals for its components. The throttle body should be inspected every 10,000 kilometers, spark plugs replaced every 20,000 kilometers, engine oil level checked every 3,000 kilometers, automatic transmission fluid replaced every 80,000 kilometers, brake fluid replaced every 30,000 kilometers, and suspension and steering system components inspected every 10,000 kilometers. 2. Under severe driving conditions: Under severe driving conditions, the maintenance intervals should be shortened as required.
Last time I accompanied my friend to the Buick 4S dealership, I specifically asked about this. The maintenance cycle for the LaCrosse mainly depends on two indicators: mileage and time. Under normal driving conditions, the official recommendation is to perform a minor maintenance at 5,000 kilometers or 6 months, which includes changing the engine oil and oil filter, and inspecting the chassis. At 10,000 kilometers or 12 months, a comprehensive maintenance is required, including replacing the air filter and cabin air filter. Of course, this is the most basic schedule. For those who frequently drive long distances or often get stuck in traffic, the cycle should be advanced a bit. A special reminder for turbocharged (T) models: the turbocharger has higher requirements for engine oil, so it's best not to exceed 7,500 kilometers. Always keep an eye on the dashboard reminders, and don't wait until the warning light comes on to take action.
