Which type of oil filter does the camaro use?
I found a deal where several oil filters are on sale ;P
But... stupid me doesn't know which model of oil filter is for my camaro (2010 2LT) or how to find out. Does anyone know if any of these are the ones I need? They're all Mobil 1 http://www.amazon.com/b/qid=13573210...A27HS86EB7X4OQ |

It should be in your Owner's manual.

PF48 from Walmart is what smart money buys. Just my opinion.
It's the perfect filter for the engine, very high quality. Frams, Purolators... are junk. Anything more than a PF48 is a waste of money.... and not covered by factory warranty if something goes wrong. No other filter has that advantage... 100K engine warranty, no questions. I use to be a dealer tech, never once saw a problem with an ACDelco filter. Saw plenty of aftermarket junk filter problems. I wouldn't put Fram's garbage on my lawn mower. The high priced ones are great filters, top quality... but a waste of money when the perfect one for the car is under $5. |

Any filter which states "meets or exceeds mfg's recommendations/standards" is good to go and won't void your warranty. PF48 is the AC/Delco filter OEM and works fine, but so are many more. It would be a real stretch for GM to decline a warranty issue on a broken timing chain due to using a Fram filter. |
