Best Answer

The reason is that Original Equipment Manufactures (OEMs), such as General Motors in your case, often utilize the same components and lubricants across different models, and even other companies to standardize the market and decrease costs. Motor oils are standardized by common viscosities, as are oil filter part numbers. Thus your situation with shared oil type and oil filter part number are perfectly normal.
