I'd buy a BMW oil filter from a BMW dealership. /thread

You want OE, MANN, Mahle or Hengst. There were issues where bottom part of some filters would stay glued in oil filter housing. 14hrs job!!! |

I agree with your brand likes, but I was getting Mann at Autozone. Now, nothing.

FWIW- I buy the Castrol oil at Walmart and the filters on Amazon which makes the maintenance pretty inexpensive. The F30 is by far the easiest oil change of any car I've ever owned, which was a present surprise. Lastly, for anyone doing their first oil change (like the OP), don't forget to pickup a 16 flute oil filter wrench for BMW's. Below is a link to the brand I have (although mine is an older style)… https://www.amazon.com/dp/B01N54IT33...UTF8&psc=1 |

How snug is when you fit on oil cap and that plastic mesh? If it is not snug, switch to MANN, Mahle or Hengst. If everything fits properly, you are fine. |

RealOEM shows my oil filter as part number 11427953129. HU816X matches that OEM part number: https://www.fcpeuro.com/products/bmw...xi-x3-041-8195 Either way, I've done oil changes every 5,000 miles every since the car was built. |

xDrive has a steel oil pan and uses a steel drain plug. RWD has a plastic oil pan and uses a plastic drain plug. The filter element is the same with X or Z variants, the hardware that comes with them is not. Both the crush washer with the X and the drain plug with the Z versions are one time use only, so you'd best get the right one.
