I have used K&N oil filters my entire life and never once had one leak from the nut portion of the filter housing
I run K&N filters and mobil-1 5W-30 at 350k km
I use the K&N 170 on my 1999 883C, have for years. Not sure why Amazon is saying "not for your model", I've literally been using it for the last 16 years and 70,000 miles, and have ordered 6 of them from Amazon over that time period.
Been running this on my 03’ hatch and it’s been great.
The oil, no, K&N filters I've been using for almost a decade. Doesn't seem to have any issues. And I like the 1 inch nut on it.
I own a f30 (330d) and have done my own oil changes for the past 9 years and change oil every 7k miles. I started out using 0w-20 oil till around 60k mileage. I then switched to 5w30 from 60k mileage for engine longevity. I’ve always used Mahle filters on my car. Mann and Bosch are good alternatives to use too. As my F30 sits quite low I have always jacked it off the ground so I can get access to the sump plug. Also remember to change the washer from the sump plug during every oil change.
4,6 Liter LM TopTec 4200 (Gebinde von 5 Litern ca. 40 bis 50 Euro), Ölfilter Mahle OC456 ca. 13 Euro, Dichtring für die Ölablassschraube
and don't use store bought oil filters unless they sell Mahle or Mann.
After an oil change, the car shot most of the oil out from the filter. I installed a brand new Mahle filter, tightening it snug. After a short drive, it again shot all the oil out of the filter, with the gasket forced to the outside.
K&N oil filters on the other hand, are like the thread count myth for bedsheets. You are paying a shitton more for 480 Egyptian cotton you'll throw out in 3000 mi.
