Thanks for the tips, I'm doing it this weekend on a 22 Yukon 3.0 when I do my oil change. I figure every 15k is probably worthwhile as the filters aren't expensive. Good tip on the guy below who said that the O-ring he received was a different size.

I hope to see some more videos on the maintenance for this soon. I recently bought a 20 Silverado with the engine and so far everything is the same.

I just got the Tonno Pro Lo Roll for mine. Same spec as you have mentioned and generally works great, price is low and has lifetime warranty. Only minor issue is the extendable handle to climb into the bed touches the tonneau rail but still opens and locks into place.
Man that baby sure was eiser to prime than my old 2001 Ram Cummins 24V!
Do u have to prime it twice? Or just once. 2022 chevy 1500 3.0l lm2

Wouldn’t mind hearing your thoughts comparing the GM and Ram diesels. And thoughts on the undercarriage of each. I suspect the frame will show rust on the GM before the Ram with that wax coated frame.

Have changed mine on my 3.0 Duramax 3 times already with no problems. Went to change it this time and I can’t get the plastic housing off to save my life. It’s extremely tight. Idk if I didn’t lubricate the o ring enough or I overtightened it. But I can’t get it off. Have tried socket and just rounding off the nut. Filter wrench, strap wrench. Nothing is working. It will not budge at all. Any tips for getting it off?

Ok guys got it fixed yesterday. So the bigger O-ring that came with the filter from Amazon oem gm part was thinner diameter than the original factory so when primed sprayed and leaked. So I had no choice but to reuse the older o ring which was thicker and sealed right up. I'm thinking when you change out yours compare the two. I might just pay the extra bucks and get from my local dealer 😤
