In 2005, Buick released the all-new LaCrosse as the replacement for two aging sedans in its lineup: the Century and Regal. The 2006 LaCrosse came standard with a 3.8-liter V-6 engine that produced 200 horsepower, or an optional 3.6-liter V-6 with 240-horsepower. The LaCrosse used an oil-life monitoring system to alert you when it’s time to change the oil. The resetting process for this system depends on whether your LaCrosse has a Driver’s Information Center or not.
