Year and Trim: 2000 Bonneville SSEI

Hi! My name is Lisa and I purchased a 2000 Pontiac Bonneville SSEI, supercharged. It's quite an impressive vehicle and I'd like to always keep it under good maintenance. I was thinking about using synthetic motor oil. Any advise or suggestions as to general upkeep of a supercharged engine is much appreciated here.

Welcome Lisa!!

Here's a maintenance sheet that was put together a long time ago by a couple of us: care-and-feeding/topic40156.html

Hope that helps.

welcome to the club Lisa!!

high quality conventional oil will do just fine and will save you 20+ bucks per change - just be sure to change every 3000 miles or 3 months.
