N57 oil filter housing socket size

Ofield_94 · 08-01-2023, 02:32 PM

Evening all, I'm due to do my own mind point oil and filter change on my 30d and I'm wondering what socket I'm going to need to take off the oil filter housing? All replies are appreciated!

27mm I believe

IIRC 36mm for the N57, 27mm for the N47

I've got both in and the 36mm is far too big for my N47; the N47s filter housing cap looks tiny in comparison

Could be wrong, but sure it was 36mm on my F01 730D

Just checked mine and it's 27mm (2017)

I’ve just checked and it’s a 27mm socket on my 2016 335d. Hope that helps.
