My '03 Buick Park Avenue, non-supercharged, had that same series of 3800 engine. I bought the car at 44K, ran it to over 100K, and it was still doing great when I traded it. I used several different oils, Chevron and PP, then tried Castrol Edge which gave it a bad consumption problem. Castrol GTX for a while, then I settled on QS Defy, which cut the consumption down to about 1 qt. in 4500 miles (which was my OCI -- easy to remember, 6 months, though the OLM was still saying I had 40% left). I used Wix filters mostly, I think.
The oil level sensor is sensitive; when you park on an incline with the passenger side lower, the low oil message in the Driver's Info Center (if you have that) may come on before you really need to add oil. But you'll need to soon.
