The 2012 Buick LaCrosse holds around 5 quarts of oil for the 4-cylinder and 6 quarts for the 6-cylinder engine. You should use Synthetic 5W-30 oil in your car, which typically costs between $22 and $35 for 5 quarts. To check your oil levels (wait until the engine is cold), locate the hood release lever on the driver's side of your car's cabin and pull it to open the hood. Look for the oil dipstick near the front of the engine on the driver's side. Pull out the dipstick, wipe it clean with a shop rag or lint-free towel, reinsert it, remove it, and check the oil level. If the oil is below the fill line, add more; if it's above the full line, drain some out. It's recommended to change your oil every 7,500 miles or so.
In the 2012 Buick LaCrosse, the amount of engine oil needed varies based on the type of engine in the model. For 4-cylinder engines, you'll need approximately 5 quarts of oil, while 6-cylinder engines in the same model require around 6 quarts.
