After all, "Oil is the blood of the engine. It's the #1 thing you can do for your car," says our maintenance technician, Brianna.

Your 2003 LeSabre’s oil should be changed according to Buick’s recommended oil change intervals. Check out mileage and month info for your LeSabre in the above table. Outside of Buick-recommended oil change intervals, your LeSabre may need an oil change if your check engine light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, 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, adventure off-road, or go at low speeds on long distance trips. Generally, getting more frequent oil changes won’t hurt your Buick LeSabre. In fact, every oil change is an opportunity to diagnose and treat any other issues, such as bad brakes or a failing battery.
