Microfilters on an E92 M3 - Changing

Thought some people may find this vaguely useful.

Save some money and swap out the microfilters yourself - incredibly easy to do.

£65 for two cabin filters?? Bloody hell!

I reckon you could still further that saving you made by going to a motor factor and picking up German branded Mahle filters.

65 isn't too bad really, active carbon filters are always expensive

Dear oh dear. The dealers have a field day with you guys when it comes to those filters

If you want non-BMW ones, but probably just as good, you can get them from the US for about 30US$ :eek:

Must admit I laughed a bit when the guy at BMW said 160 quit for those. On your bike matey

Well the fact you can pick up some E90 filters for £6 each. You paid £12 for someone to do 5 mins work?

Lol.
