Hi,
I have looked at your section on changing oil filter for my car. I have been offered a paper filter for £5 that fits into holder and screws back into engine block to a screw in unit for £33. Would you either be able to give me the BMW part number or advise what type of element I need and if it would help taking VIN number to, for example, Grman and swedish.

Also, I have halo plugs to replace the existing plugs as apparent work well with lpg. Any recomendation in changing plugs - I have heard that it can be a bit of a job!


Many thanks for any assistance
Regards
Derek

The oil filter p/n is 11-42-1-510-717. What is a "halo" plug? Bosch p/n is 12-12-0-141-871 for the plugs and yes they are a challenge to replace.
