This extends the life of your engine and improves fuel efficiency.
How often should this filter be changed? According to BMW's recommendations, the air filter should typically be changed every 15,000 to 30,000 kilometers. However, this interval may be shorter depending on your driving conditions; especially if you frequently drive in dusty or dirty environments, it is advisable to check the filter more often.
