Oil filter Mahle or STP

Do you drive this to the strip club?

For filters I use Mahle, if I remember correct that is also the OEM supplier, but costs half what a BMW branded one costs.

I had the same code popping up onky after redlining. I had 2 months prior, replaced the oil filter housing on my atlas 21' 2.0t and vw passat 15' 1.8t with the metal one... off brand from amazon but works well on the atlas, so no issues, EPC would be nonstop until i turned off the car and back on. Switched the housing back to stock with a new filter and BOOM. Problem literally solved.

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

just use pennzoil platinum or valvoline advanced 0w-20 from walmart and an STP 10992XL filter from autozone.

I had an e90 with the n52 engine. When i first got the car i installed a Mahle filter that fit. After a bit of driving the engine started making weird noises, similar to vacum leaks. And I did som research. Apperantly my experiance was common with "aftermarket" oil filters. Switched to Mann filter on my next oil change, specificaly the same variant as the right one in your picture. The problem disappeared instantly. Also the Mahle filter had kind of colapsed in on itself.

and don't use store bought oil filters unless they sell Mahle or Mann.

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

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.
