💡 Note for GM trucks: Many GM engines use a cartridge-style filter inside a plastic housing rather than a traditional spin-on canister, especially on newer EcoTec3 V8s. Confirm which type your engine uses before ordering — call us with your engine code if unsure.
Why Replace Every Oil Change
- Filter media degrades and can become saturated with contaminants over thousands of kilometres
- A failing anti-drain valve causes a dry-start every morning, accelerating wear on bearings and cam lobes
- Inexpensive insurance — a quality filter costs a fraction of the engine damage poor filtration can cause over time
Recommended Pairing
This filter pairs well with our 5W-30 or 0W-20 full synthetic oils — see our Apex Auto Spare Parts oil range for the correct viscosity for your specific Silverado or Sierra engine and model year.
