I just saw the video...dude in the video is working on an I6
DIESEL engine...you came back to state that you have the 4.4 M62TU V8 engine.
The 3.0d's air filter is #3 in the diagram below (just like in the video)...again, totally different engine than what you have:
Just a note to the OP and to the guy who made the video...you should always IDENTIFY which e53 you have...there are multiple engines, transmissions etc. ...the more information/details you give about your e53...the better answers you get.
For instance, if you had looked for a video on how to change the air filter on an
e53 X5 4.4 with the M62 engine...you wouldn't have been confused by watching someone change the air filter on an inline 6 cylinder
e53 X5 3.0d M57 engine.
If you create a signature that has your model/model year/build date info...it can help us help you better...especially since you indicate that you're not that familiar as a DIY'er. Your vehicle's info will help reveal to us details about your X5 that you may not be aware of that we need to give you the best answer.
You can create a signature by clicking on the
USER CP link found at the very top right of the page in the blue border.
All the various engines found in the e53 X5...not all e53s are the same...
