Below you’ll find complete maintenance specs, fluid capacities, parts, and links to buy what you need.

⚑ QUICK DIY TIPS FOR THE 2013 BUICK ENCLAVE
  • Torque your drain plug to 25 Nm (18 ft-lbs) to avoid leaks or stripped threads.
  • Using the OEM filter (ACDelco PF64) is recommended for warranty compliance.
  • Always use 5W-30 Full Synthetic as specified by Buick — using the wrong viscosity can void your powertrain warranty.
  • Check the maintenance schedule below for your next service interval.
