Bosch engine oil filter 3510 — FILTECH high-capacity media, silicone anti-drain valve (fits older GM/GMC/HUMMER)

BOSCH 3510 is a premium engine oil filter built with FILTECH media to trap up to 14 grams of dirt and particles, protecting engine components by keeping contaminants out of circulating oil.

Designed for durability and precise fit, the BOSCH 3510 combines advanced filtration media with robust metal construction and service-friendly features. It uses Bosch's FILTECH technology plus reinforced internal and external components to deliver reliable protection across a wide range of older GM, GMC, HUMMER and related vehicle applications. This product description explains how the filter works, what features set it apart, and which drivers will benefit most from choosing the BOSCH 3510.

How does FILTECH media improve oil filtration?

The FILTECH media is engineered to capture and retain fine particles so they do not recirculate through the engine. By holding as much as 14 grams of debris, it reduces abrasive wear on bearings, camshafts and other moving parts without restricting oil flow when the engine is running.

• High-capacity fiber matrix traps up to 14 grams of dirt and particles
• Media structure balances filtration efficiency with oil flow
• Reduces contaminant recirculation to protect engine internals

Why is construction quality important for this filter?

Durable materials and precise manufacturing keep the 3510 performing for the intended service interval. A strong steel base plate and housing prevent warpage and leaks, while a spiral-wound metal center tube gives internal reinforcement to resist collapse under pressure and extend filter life.

• Steel base plate and housing maintain correct OE-style fit and sealing
• Spiral-wound metal center tube resists deformation and supports media
• High-lubricity gasket provides a tight, leak-resistant seal yet eases removal

What features help during engine start and routine oil changes?

The BOSCH 3510 includes service-oriented design elements that protect the engine on cold starts and simplify maintenance. A silicone anti-drain back valve prevents oil from draining out of the filter when the engine is off, ensuring immediate oil pressure and lubrication at startup.

• Silicone anti-drain back valve preserves oil in the filter for instant lubrication
• Lubricious gasket makes installation leak-free and removal less stubborn
• OE-form fit reduces chance of cross-threading or poor sealing during service

Which vehicles commonly use the BOSCH 3510?

The 3510 is compatible with a broad range of older GM-derived trucks, vans, SUVs and some specialty vehicles. Fitment depends on model year and engine trim, so confirm compatibility with your vehicle’s fitment tool or owner specifications before purchase.

• Common fits include many Chevrolet and GMC pickups, Suburbans, and vans from the 1960s through early 2000s
• Also suitable for select HUMMER H1 models and various heavy-duty truck variants
• Always verify fitment by year, model, and engine to ensure correct application

Who is this for: The BOSCH 3510 suits owners and technicians who maintain older trucks, SUVs and vans and want a durable, high-capacity filter that prioritizes contaminant capture and dependable service performance. It’s a strong choice for vehicles that see heavy duty use, long oil service intervals, or drivers who prefer OEM-quality replacement parts with improved filtration media.
