Upgrade your BMW 1 Series 120d intake with a genuine BMC performance panel air filter. Engineered to deliver higher air flow than the original paper element, this BMC cotton gauze filter helps your diesel breathe more freely, creating the ideal conditions to maximise performance potential while maintaining excellent filtration.
Why choose the BMC performance panel filter
- Higher air flow than OEM paper filters for responsive power delivery
- Designed to replace the original paper filter in the factory airbox for a simple drop-in upgrade
- Developed using F1-derived technology for consistent performance
- Multi-layer cotton gauze soaked with low-viscosity oil for outstanding air permeability
- Alloy mesh with epoxy coating resists petrol fumes and oxidation from humidity
- Full Moulding soft rubber construction, made as a single piece with no welded corners for durability and a reliable seal
Engineering that delivers
BMC air filters are designed and produced by qualified engineers using advanced software and the latest manufacturing technology. Their Full Moulding system creates the familiar BMC red filter as a single piece, reducing the risk of breakage and ensuring a precise fit. The combination of cotton gauze and low-viscosity oil minimises pressure drop across the filter, a principle long proven in F1 to support maximum power.
