BoschR5503 - Cabin Filter activated-carbon

I replaced the original cabin filter in my F36 with this product and noticed instant results.It's a fiddly job but not at all difficult and well worth the short time it takes to complete.I noticed an instant improvement of the air quality within the cabin and will definitely buy again.Reasonably priced by comparison, fits perfectly and does a good job.

Really well made it's the second one I have brought and they last a long time really good quality really happy with the product.

Bosh filter , probably enough said! Fitted my BMW 1 series F20 perfectly and this is the top of the range filter with carbon e.t.c. noticably does not let the smells in too !

Performance is far better than what the dealer had put in previously (Mahle). They charge more for a product that doesn’t have activated carbon and therefore doesn’t remove smells. Superior product that is great value for money.

Perfect for my F30 2013

The arrow is pointing in the wrong direction compared to the product page pictures. It’s meant to go from the carbon to the back, mines opposite

After using a Mann filter last year in the absence of an available Mahle, the difference in quality between this Bosch and the others is noticeable. The Bosch filter is much higher quality and also more flexible, for ease of fitting in F30/F31 curved housing with limited access.

Having purchased a used BMW around eight months ago, I realised that my microfilter (aka cabin filter/pollen filter) needed replacing since it was last changed around 27k miles ago. Very happy with this new filter and it was really good value.I fitted it into my 218i coupe with relative ease, although it does take some strength to manoeuvre yourself underneath the passenger footwell. Simply need a 10mm socket to remove the two hex head screws, then temporarily unplug the 12v socket and footwell light. 3 more T20 screws and then remove the cover for the filter.Very easy and cheap to do it yourself and I recommend watching videos on YouTube if you don't know how. Very happy with this purchase as it saved me quite a bit of money.
