If you mean the filter that came on the engine from the factory as being the "OEM filter", it's quite often that the oil filter spun-on at the factory can be different than the same filter bought at the dealership or store.Went to change the oil first time (3000m) on a new Chevy traverse and notice the OEM filter was longer in length that the Delco PF63(ordered from amazon. whats up with this?
This is what I think. I bought PF48s for if I ever have to recharge my wife’s AC on her ‘11 Enclave. It went to PF63 in 2011 and the charge port is obstructed. (I can remove the filter to gain access but of course engine has to run to run the ac compressor)Did they accidentally send you a pf48. I wouldn't blame you if you didn't check what you ordered as I almost never do. I only check when I'm in store.

What they may have given you is a PF64. What does it say on the filter?Went to change the oil first time (3000m) on a new Chevy traverse and notice the OEM filter was longer in length that the Delco PF63(ordered from amazon. whats up with this?

I believe a PF 64 will solve your problem and give you the same 22 psi bypass pressure as the PF63.This is what I think. I bought PF48s for if I ever have to recharge my wife’s AC on her ‘11 Enclave.

It was PF 63. Did not have the "E". Even Wal-Mart PF63 filters are sized smaller (still no "E") but the same stock as what I ordered from Bozo. This same stock number is called for on my 2016 Enclave and 2014 GMC 5.3L I've been using for years. Now I suspect the smaller filter will have less media. PS..it was a 2023 Traverse and WOW it was on tight. I used a band wrench to take it off and crushed the walls bigly.What they may have given you is a PF64. What does it say on the filter?
