Default UPF 46 oil filter

Recently the dealer changed my oil and fiter(freebie!). They used a UPF46 (or PF46). Is this the same or better than the UPF44?

Just want to make sure I have the correct filter. If not I'll be swapping it out...

Thanks in advance!

They did the same with mine. The 46 replaces the 44.

PHEW! Thanks all! That is what I was hoping. They did a fine job. It was a local Cadillac dealership.

The UPF46 is not the same as the PF46. The UPF is the "Ultraguard" version and according to their filter box information, it is capable of trapping 98% of 8 to 10 micron particles. The "Conventional averge" filter can only trap 40% and the "Premium average" filter can only trap 72%. IF you can believe the claims on the box, this is the filter to use. If you buy them from GM parts direct they are approx $7 ea.
