Mahle oil filter same as OEM?
Can any one confirm if the Mahle OX 387 D oil filter is the same as the oem oil filter for M2 (part number ending in 854445?)
Is it the same quality? suitable for M car needs? |

True, bosch, mahle, hengst, mann are all good brands. But the mann is probably the easiest one to find and buy in North America, and FCP euro has life time warranty on it too. So the mann hu8011z is probably still the go to choice for a filter. But I do not disagree with you that the alternatives are still good stuff.

But generally speaking, I don't think I have ever seen a hengst filter on bmw's and not bosch either - atleast on the 6mt m2 the dct may have dct filters made from one of those other companies. I have only really seen mann (oil filter) and mahle (intake filter).

Agreed - I don't think Bosch even makes filters.
Go to your local parts store, find any brand's BMW filter, open the box and look at the filter - 100/1 it's got Mann, Mahle or Hengst printed on it somewhere.

Not sure about others. I wouldn't experiment with it considering tht some of aftermarket filters (k&N for example) don't fit on cage properly. |
