  • Today I show you exactly how to replace the engine air filter for a BMW 328i 2007-2011. This is a fairly challenging procedure for an air filter. With a little patience and a couple of tools you can make sure the job is done correctly and save a ton of money in the process. A shop, or heaven forbid a dealer, would charge you something like $150-200 for this service. While the filter and tools cost about a tenth of that. Over the time you own this vehicle that will add up to thousands of dollars on this job alone. If you have any questions please leave them below and thank you for watching!

    I do 90% of all the maintenance on our vehicles, and I watch a lot of these videos to see if there are alternative ways to do something. However, I do appreciate your videos in particular because you are straight to the point, and I like that, so thank you.

    Thank you! Your video was of great help working on this needlessly complicated air box! Used to be you had to undo a single wing nut to change an air filter.

    I have an E90 2011. Love my car. Expensive to have worked on but it drives really well

    The ridiculousness of this, just to replace an air filter. Got to love the engineering involved for that!

    All u had to do was clean the one that came out. They have a lifetime warranty. The performance filters like K&N etc... they not only filter better they also increase hp & mpg. Much better than paper. U recommend conventional oil over full synthetic?

    At the same time it is good idea to clean the MAF sensor.

    Interesting
    I have a 2009 328 convertible
    I only have 13,000 miles on it.
    Bought it brand new in 2008
    When I separated the halves on my airbox, there was a permanent filter attached to the side of the airbox that closest to the air mass sensor that’s part of the airbox
    In addition, there was the normal filter that was factory.
    It said BMW on it and since I’m the original owner from New, I know it’s been done to my car.
    I replaced that element that was still pretty with a MANN brand air filter
    The airbox in your video only had the one filter
    Check out other CZcams videos and you’ll see that second filter in there

    Some may think that any idiot can change an air filter but after a decade working for Advance Autoparts I can tell you some people can't even identify it. Had a customer come in driving an early 70's Mercury Grand Marquis and told me that he needed "that thing that goes on top of the engine." (I facepalmed) "Can you describe it for me me," I asked. "Yeah, its round and goes on top of the engine." I probe further, "does it sit between to big metal plates?" "Yeah!" he responds. "You need an air filter?" I concluded. "Yeah! I need and air filter!" I couldn't help but think that he shouldn't be allowed within 100 yards of a car with a screwdriver.

      I just prefer stock paper, I think they do a better job at keeping dirt out of the engine. Thanks for watching!

      @@2carpros Yes and I see that k&n is like about 70 something dollars depending on where you live in the United States so I think I would stick the paper too because it's more affordable for me cuz I'm not trying to spend too much money on on my first E90

      @@isrealperez9069K&N is fine, filtration isn’t really an issue because you have a second charcoal filter which will reduce more debris than what the K&N won’t filter. The charcoal filter was removed in this vehicle however.

    Open the Filter box and find a Pre Filter, fixed can’t change? Sucks!
