AC Delco UPF63r Oil Filter

[salter]

Hello all. My wife has a 2020 GMC Acadia Denali with 3.6. It came with a AC Delco PF64 Oil Filter. Manual says replacement is UPF63r. I have a supply of PF63E filters I use for my 2015 Impala 3.6. Can I use the PF63E filters on the Acadia without doing damage? Thanks in Advance - salter.

The correct oil filter is the UPF63r. The last year the PF63E was used on the Acadia was 2017. The bypass settings are different. Bypass setting on UPF63R is 36psi. The bypass setting on the PF63E is 22psi. So, I WOULD NOT USE the PF63E.

This link includes the TSB from GM which involves the switch to the UPF63r. Though not stated, this should include the 2020 model as well. (document is from 2019)
