The 2008 facelift modernised the Buick LaCrosse with a bold waterfall chrome grille, revised bumpers, and most notably the introduction of the high-performance LaCrosse Super. Powered by a brawny 5.3-litre small-block V8 with Bilstein monotube dampers, the Super transformed this plush cruiser into a 300 hp muscle saloon. Preserving this rare executive saloon requires disciplined Buick LaCrosse maintenance, targeting active cylinder deactivation and cooling components.
While the robust 3.8-litre 3800 V6 continued on base trims, the Super featured the 5.3-litre LS4 V8 equipped with Active Fuel Management (AFM) cylinder deactivation. Power flows through a heavy-duty 4T65-E-HD automatic gearbox. The V8's substantial torque output places significant mechanical stress on front wheel bearings, engine torque mounts and transmission clutch packs.
