Cornerstone Chevrolet’s parts team is here to help with our definitive guide on how to look for an oil filter for your Chevy Silverado 1500. Get all the details about the different tiers of recommended parts and how to find them near St. Michael with Cornerstone Chevrolet.

The Three Tiers of Chevy Truck Oil Filters

There are two main types of oil filters for Chevy Silverado 1500 models: OEM parts and aftermarket parts. OEM parts are parts produced by the original manufacturer for your vehicle, which will provide the best fit, performance, and quality. In contrast, aftermarket parts can be made by any manufacturer, and are often built to fit a larger selection of vehicles, making them cheaper to buy but often of lower quality and performance than an OEM part.

Chevrolet makes it easy to find the right part for your budget by offering three tiers of parts, including the top tier of OEM parts and two certified aftermarket tiers that have met GM’s standards. Find an oil filter for your Chevy Silverado 1500 in one of these tiers for the best performance:

• OE – GM Genuine Parts and ACDelco Original Equipment: The OE tier of parts consists of GM genuine parts and ACDelco original equipment, all installed during the original production of vehicles and rigorously tested by General Motors. These parts can be identified by the blue metallic packaging.
• Gold – ACDelco Gold: The gold tier of parts for your Chevy Silverado is made up of high-quality OEM alternatives, which are manufactured to meet General Motor’s expectations for function, fit, and form.
• Silver – ACDelco Silver: The silver tier of parts consists of high-quality value options for most makes and models and are fully backed by GM.
