We couldn’t put it better than our technician, Brianna. She likes to explain to customers that, “Oil is the blood of the engine. It’s the #1 thing you can do for your car.”

Buick recommends having your 2018 Buick Envision’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your Envision in the above table. No matter the mileage, your Envision may need its oil changed ASAP if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, smell oil inside the car, or see an excess amount of vehicle exhaust. You may also need an oil change more frequently than Buick recommends if you haul heavy loads, frequent dusty roads, enjoy off-roading, or go long distances at low speeds. More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Buick Envision. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
