Hi
Just changed the oil on my X5, recently bought and still tidying up, but wanted to get new oil & filter in it as I had no idea when last done.
This is the filter, and as you can see it's in pretty abominable condition, and what's more I'm pretty sure is not even the right one. It's about 20m shorter that the Mann filter I replaced it with.
Thought it was worth sharing and wondered if anybody had seen anything worse. Also I thought I should probably change oil & filter (or just oil?) again shortly to ensure there's no crap left that the old filter hadn't cleaned out.
Thoughts?
Craig
