What oil filter do you need for a 2003 Chevy Malibu?

You'll need to know the engine size of your 2003 Chevy Malibu to determine the correct oil filter. There were several engine options for that year. Once you know the engine size (e.g., 2.2L, 3.1L, 3.5L), you can:

* Check your owner's manual: This is the most reliable source. It will list the recommended oil filter part number(s).

* Use an online parts store: Websites like AutoZone, Advance Auto Parts, or Napa Auto Parts allow you to search by vehicle year, make, model, and engine size to find the correct filter.

* Consult a local auto parts store: The staff at a local auto parts store can help you find the right filter if you provide them with your vehicle's information.

Don't rely solely on general advice found online, as the correct oil filter varies depending on the specific engine in your Malibu.
