The best way to keep your Buick Encore running smoothly on Davenport roads is to bring it into our service center for regular service. The Buick Encore operates on service intervals of every 7,500 miles, which usually means you’ll be coming in for maintenance every 7-8 months. At each maintenance appointment, our service team will inspect your vehicle, replace any necessary components, and make sure that everything is working in the best condition possible.
One of the services we perform at every maintenance appointment is a Buick Encore oil change. This is one of your car’s most essential services, since it protects your engine and keeps it working smoothly and effectively in and around Bettendorf. It’s important to use the correct oil type for your Encore. There are many different grades and varieties, and using the wrong kind can put your engine at risk. So what’s the correct Buick Encore oil type?
The Buick Encore runs on synthetic oil with a grade of 5W-30. Read on for some more important information about Buick Encore oil changes in the following guide.
Although synthetic and conventional oil are both petroleum-based, there are some important differences between the two. You can technically use conventional oil in the Buick Encore, but it isn’t as effective, and you’ll have to change it every 3,000 miles rather than every 7,500, which may end up costing you more.
Conventional (or regular) oil is mined directly from the ground. It’s the type of oil that’s been used in automobiles since their invention, and is generally affordable and reliable. Synthetic oil is relatively new, and is chemically processed in a laboratory to provide higher and longer-lasting performance. For these reasons, synthetic oil is also more expensive, but it tends to balance out cost-wise since you won’t have to get your Encore’s oil changed as often.
