Looking for oil change recommendations for your 2021 Buick Encore GX? Look no further than Firestone Complete Auto Care! We are experts in car care — not just tires.

Buick recommends having your 2021 Buick Encore GX’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. See mileage and month specifics in the above table. Your Encore GX may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear engine knocking, smell oil inside the vehicle, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Buick recommends if you haul heavy loads, drive in dusty terrain, go off-roading a lot, or go long distances at low speeds. In general, being extra-diligent about oil changes won’t damage your Buick Encore GX. In fact, more frequent oil changes give our technicians more opportunities to catch and alert you to any issues, like worn brake pads or a weak battery.

Whether you need high mileage oil, synthetic oil, or conventional oil, you'll find the right 2021 Buick Encore GX motor oil at Firestone Complete Auto Care. Buick has specifically identified either synthetic or conventional as the ideal engine oil for your 2021 Encore GX. Motor oil reduces friction between engine components, keep the engine cool, and keep harmful substances from building up inside the engine. During your oil change service, a technician will change your Encore GX's oil, replace and recycle your used oil and filter, inspect the rest of your car’s filters, refill vital car fluids, and perform a free inspection on the rest of your vehicle. You can rest assured knowing that we seek to do what’s best for your Encore GX by considering your driving habits, and odometer.
