An Acdelco PF52 oil filter fits older GM, Chevrolet, GMS and Cadillac vehicles and is highly commonly used in trucks, SUVs and passenger cars that were built from the 1980s to early 2000s.
Common vehicles that the Acdelco PF52 oil filter fit include.
Chevrolet/GMC Trucks & SUVs including the Tahoe, Suburban, Blazer, Jimmy, S10, Sonoma, and full-size C/K pickups (1500, 2500, 3500).
Vans including the Chevy Astro, Express, GMC Safari, Savana.
Passenger Cars including the Chevrolet Impala, Monte Carlo, Lumina, Corvette; Pontiac Firebird, Grand Prix; Oldsmobile Cutlass.
Performance/Luxury including the Cadillac Escalade, GMC Syclone, GMC Typhoon.
The ACDelco PF52 oil filter has a long profile, so the PF52 oil filter is often cross compatible with the shorter ACDelco PF47 oil filter, although it also offers more media capacity.
Good alternative replacements for the ACDelco PF52/PF52E oil filter include the WIX 51036, Mobil 1 M1-201, and Fram PH3980.
These oil filters are widely used for older GM vehicles and offer reliable filtration to protect your engine.
WIX: WIX 51036 (Standard) or WIX 51036XP (Synthetic/Heavy Duty)
Mobil 1: Mobil 1 M1-201 for high-efficiency synthetic media
Fram: Fram PH3980 (Standard) or Fram XG3980 (Ultra Synthetic)
Baldwin: Baldwin B35S (Known for durable, metal-core construction)
K&N: K&N HP-2001 (High-performance with a nut on the end for easy removal)
Purolator: Purolator ONE PL24011Because ACDelco’s current PF52E version utilizes an "E-core" design (featuring plastic center cages and cardboard end caps), many enthusiasts prefer WIX, Baldwin, or Mobil 1 alternatives for their heavier-duty, traditional metal construction.
