Default Oil Filters

I have been told by several Chevy dealerships that the UPF 44 oil filter has been out of production/not made for about 6 months. When the current stock runs out, what do you plan on using.....AC Delco PF, Mobil1, K&N...?

My local dealer told me the same thing, but Fichtner Chevrolet has the UPF44 and was told by ACDelco that they haven't stopped manufacturing them.

I just go to Auto zone and by my own oil and filter. It cost me about 40 bucks then I have the dealer change it for 9 buck. I use a K&N. Its P1004 or something lke that. Not to worry just use the book there. AZ stocks what we need and at a good price too. They love it when I come to pick up supplies. They alays come out and look at my car.

You can order the AMSOIL SDF32 via the link to the left.

AMSOIL's filter compares very well on the independent oil study link above.
