Oil Filter

kelly_p · 03-04-2011, 11:00 PM

Oil service due on my 320d shortly and have a question re the oil filter.

Has anyone purchased the OE filter from BMW part No 11427787697, did you notice the manufacturers name printed alongside BMW on the top of the filter.

Most likely Mann or Mahle.

Had a recent problem whilst installing an OEM cabin microfilter made by Mahle, the air flow direction arrow was in the wrong direction. I sourced a Mann filter which was fine.

Want to get the correct oil filter, just need to know who makes it for BMW.

Thanks

Bought one for my 335i last week.

Manufacturers name printed on the end was Mann.
