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.

Pros: easy oil changes, long engine life
Vehicle: BMW
Mileage: 7000 km

Cap was really stuck when taking it off initially. Also required Some force to get back on. When I first just installed new filter I got yellow oil light, still not great. Also noticed oil coming from gap between ofh and cap. And a drip from the top socket end. So end conclusion, mahle oil filters suck

Cons: poor fitment, oil leaks, oil pressure issues
Vehicle: BMW
