Using Your Maintenance Schedule
We at General Motors want to help you keep your
vehicle
in
good working condition. But we don’t know
exactly how
you’ll
drive
it.
You
may drive very short
distances
only
a
few times
a
week. Or
you
may drive
long distances all the time in very hot, dusty weather.
You
may use your vehicle in making deliveries. Or
you
may drive
it
to
work,
to
do errands or
in
many other
ways.
Because of all
the
different ways people use their
GM
vehicles, maintenance needs vary. You may even need
more frequent checks and replacements than you’ll find
in
the schedules
in
this section.
So
please read this
section and note how you drive. If you have any
questions on how to keep your vehicle
in
good
condition, see your Buick dealer.
This part tells
you
the
maintenance services you should
have done and when you should schedule them.
If
you
go to
your
dealer for your service needs,
you’ll
know
that GM-trained and supported service people will
perform
the
work using genuine
GM
parts.
The proper fluids and lubricants to use are listed
in
Part
D.
Make sure whoever services your vehicle uses
these. All parts should be replaced and all necessary
repairs done before
you
or anyone else drives the
vehicle.
These schedules are for vehicles that:
carry passengers and cargo within recommended
limits.
You
will find these limits on your vehicle’s
Tire-Loading Information label. See “Loading Your
Vehicle”
in
the Index.
0
are driven on reasonable road surfaces within legal
driving limits.
0
use the recommended unleaded fuel. See “Fuel” in
the Index.
Selecting the Right Schedule
First you’ll need to decide which
of
the two schedules
is
right for
your
vehicle. Here’s how
to
decide which
schedule
to
follow:
