Why choose a Pipercross foam panel filter for your 520d
Pipercross uses multi layered foam technology instead of cotton or paper. Foam has a greater dirt holding capacity, so it keeps flowing strongly for longer. In real world driving this means your BMW maintains peak airflow where thin paper or cotton elements start to restrict as they load up with dust. The result is a durable, high flow filter that supports smooth acceleration and efficient performance.
Triple layer filtration for maximum protection
The advanced three layer foam construction targets particles of all sizes. The coarse outer layer captures larger debris, the medium middle layer handles the bulk of incoming particles and the fine inner layer traps the remainder. This staged filtration gives excellent engine protection in varied UK conditions while sustaining high airflow.
UK made quality you can trust
Every Pipercross air filter is handmade in the UK. The Northamptonshire manufacturing process ensures consistent fit, finish and performance, backed by a lifetime warranty for road use replacement and performance filters.
