Buick recommends having your 2002 Buick Park Avenue’s motor oil changed at regular intervals. Check the interval for your vehicle mileage in the table above. Your Park Avenue may need an oil change right away if your check engine/oil change light is on, you hear knocking sounds coming from the engine, sense an oil smell in the cabin, or notice an unusual amount of exhaust.

More frequent oil changes generally won't harm your Buick Park Avenue. Each oil change is actually another chance to check and resolve other car issues, such as worn brake pads or tire treads.

2002 Buick Park Avenue Oil Change Q&A

  • Why check the motor oil level in my Buick Park Avenue? Engine oil is a lubricant for the moving parts in your engine. If you're low or out of oil, these components can grind against each other, overheat, and cause your Buick Park Avenue engine to fail. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.
  • Can I change my Buick oil on my own? Changing engine oil at home isn’t as simple as it’s made out to be. You’ll have to buy special tools and figure out a way to recycle the old oil properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also help your car perform down the road.
  • Why is my Buick exhaust smoke gray or blue? Your engine could be burning oil due to a leak. Time to have a qualified technician check things out. The leak could be the result of worn valve seals, blown piston rings, or worn cylinder walls.
  • Where can I get Buick Park Avenue oil changes? Firestone Complete Auto Care is here to care for your vehicle with our Buick Park Avenue oil changes and more. Our expert technicians will also suggest the best oil for your vehicle, address oil leaks, and swap out your oil filter.

On the other hand, the oil pressure light might illuminate due to a clogged oil filter, a faulty oil pressure sensor, low engine oil levels, or a malfunctioning oil pump.
  • Should the oil filter be replaced when getting an oil change for my Buick Park Avenue? Every time you change the oil in your Buick Park Avenue, you should also replace the oil filter. Otherwise, you risk contaminating your brand-new oil with the dirt and debris built up in your old filter.
