</td> <td rowspan="3" align="left" bgcolor="#e3e3ff" valign="top"> This information applies to 2001-05 Silverado and Sierra trucks with 6.6L Duramax® diesel engine.
Air filter p/n 25332443 is specific to the Duramax diesel engine (fig. 5). It is reinforced to eliminate damage from the increased airflow of the turbocharger. The reinforcement is visually identified by five ribs of epoxy across the pleats of the clean side of the filter.
TIP: The 8.1 liter gasoline engine air filter p/n 25313349 should never be used with a Duramax diesel. It will fit into the air box; however, it does not have the required reinforcement of the diesel air filter.
Due to the greater airflow possible with the turbo, an incorrect air filter may collapse or be torn, allowing dust and dirt to be ingested. This can cause serious damage to the turbo vanes and cylinder walls of the engine.
