Genuine GM Oil Filters

Whatever GM vehicle you drive, its engine has many parts. Motor oil lubricates them all. Now, oil has a few impurities to begin with, and it also collects particulate as it greases. Engines also create a lot of heat as they run; if your radiator can't dissipate it properly, it can turn oil into a gooey muck. What happens when either or both build up? Your oil pump and its bearings start to wear out faster. They aren't the only engine parts that do, either. Luckily, your model has an original GM oil filter to help prevent that.

What Do Oil Filters Do?

Contrary to some opinions, they're important and they do make a difference. Put simply, their job is to capture most pollutants before they can cause engine problems. You should replace yours regularly, during every oil change or during every other one. That's at least every 3 months or 3,000 miles or so. However, avoid aftermarket oil filters; they may not get your model's gasket and thread sizes right. Use the wrong-size filter, and it'll have two consequences: either the filter will start leaking or it'll detach from your oil pump. Oil leaks are bad enough for an engine, but filter detachment usually results in severe damage to one. The best replacement for your GM vehicle, then, is a genuine OEM oil filter. It'll fit your make and model most reliably. You can buy one online from our auto parts counter.
