Fram XG10060 vs AC Delco UPF48R

[WillB]

I have used both on my 2011 GMC 1500, but now the AC delco filter is more than the Fram.

Which filter is better?

 

[ZeeOSix]

Both are good full synthetic filters, but I venture to say the Ultra still has the edge.

The UPF is an M1 clone

Both are high quality filters that should get you to the full OCI suggested by your OLM. So just shop on price.

Yup. I have the UPF48R on my Camaro as we speak and it is an exact replica of the M1 and about $4-$5 cheaper. Fram is more readily available I would think now since the UPF48R I believe is discontinued, so use whichever one you can get your hands on.

Delco PF48E. Cheap, meets warranty requirements, works fine. Dont over think it.

The UPF48R is readily available on Amazon for $10.47 shipped right now.

+1 ... I had room for longer XG10575 and now that works on my GM & Ford... (order 6 at a time for savings too) ...
M212 is only an option on sale ...

The PF 48E is the e core piece of [censored], have not run one, no intentions of. I dont buy filters online, cheaper to buy when i am running errands, shipping is a killer up here.
My powertrain expires December, i keep them till they hit 200,000 miles.

Fram ultra filters at much better efficiency.
