I just bought an '07 tahoe (as some of you know) and I went to change the oil today. Everything was going fine until I went to put on the new filter. I had a Napa Gold 1042 (what the Napa book said to get). It wouldn't go on for the life of me. I thought I was doing something wrong, so I tried the old filter back on. It went on smooth. So I kept trying the NAPA one. Nothing. Couldn't get it started on the screw. I figured I just had a defective filter. Went to wally world (close by) and got an AC Delco 10060. Got home. Exact same thing. WTF!?!?!?! I spent an hour under that thing trying to get either filter on. Finally just put the old one back on (microguard MGL10060).

Am I insane? Stupid? Doing something wrong?

The NAPA Gold for an 07 with a 5.3 is 7060.
