The 2003 Buick Century requires SAE 5w-30 fully synthetic motor oil, with a capacity of 6 US quarts. You can purchase this oil at various retail locations or online from reliable sellers. Prices typically range from $1.56 to $11.62 per bottle. If you opt for professional assistance for the oil change, expect to pay between $42 and $185 for labor. It might be a good idea to get a funnel, costing $1 to $3, to avoid any spills during the process.

    A 3.2-liter engine requires 5 quarts of oil; using 6 quarts can force oil into the throttle body via the PCV system. This can result in premature PCV failure, causing issues like rough starting, backfiring, and smoky startups.
