The writeup on here and the bavarian autosport list one part number (64 11 8 363 274) as being the correct cabin microfilters, but the factory manual and this ebay listing: http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...RK%3AMEWA%3AIT list (64-31-9-071-933) as being the correct part number. Are there two types, or is one place off? Are there different filters for the heater and the A/C? Thanks for your help. __________________ 1995 Black 318ti, 5-speed Mostly Stock...

I'm not sure if it is the same as yours,i still haven't put them in but i know there the correct ones. I'll give you the part number when i go home. Personally i wouldn't believe anything ebay had posted for our cars. I'd go by bavauto before ebay. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 05-26-2005, 09:23 PM | #3 | Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Christiansburg, VA Posts: 73 | Thanks. I'm inclined to agree and trust bavauto; I'm just confused because my ETK manual also lists the part number on ebay. Weird. Providence is hell for air filters though __________________ 1995 Black 318ti, 5-speed Mostly Stock...

Border between nice and crappy area, but that's how grad school is. Nice looking ride, by the way. __________________ 1995 Black 318ti, 5-speed Mostly Stock...

We (wife and I) might try moving closer to the water when our lease runs out. Had about enough of living next to a hospital and Main st. Heard there are nice areas out there, just gotta find them! __________________ 1995 Black 318ti, 5-speed Mostly Stock...

Anyways i just checked my cabin filters that i have and you want to go by the bavauto.com I bought mine from them a few months ago but haven't got a chance to put them in. Only thing that sucks about our car is you need 2 of them so thats about $40. __________________ 98 Avus Blue 318 ti Active clear outs all around,stealth turning signals,blue led interior lights, 35% tinted windows,K&N air filter, 12" Kenwood Sub, MTX Thunder Amp,Alpine cd changer, Leatherz Armrest,ACS Pedals/Handbrake/FloorMats & Vitesse Tuning Carbon Fiber B-Pillars/CF Spark Plug Cover, New 16" MSW Typer 14 Rims on Goodyear Triple Treds www.myspace.com/avusblueti | | | 05-29-2005, 10:04 PM | #9 | aka Stabby Join Date: Nov 2004 Location: Mead, CO Posts: 5,336 | i've ordered the filters (ACC cabin filter) from bimmerparts.com each time and they've been the correct ones. http://catalog.eautopartscatalog.com...C+Cabin+Filter there's a write up on cabin filters here (in the notebook), or on www.unofficialbmw.com (which is think is more useful since it has pics). i've done them a couple times now and will be doing them again soon. __________________ 1996 318ti, California package, 267k miles current mods: bilstein sports, bavauto springs, e30 m3 LCABs, solid metal ball joints, bavauto RSMs w/reinforcements, e30 3.73 LSD & halfshafts, supersprint cat-back exhaust, turner rear sway bar reinforcements, IE poly subframe & RTABs + camber/toe kits, powdercoated e36 32x front calipers, sport mirrors, H&R 28mmF/19mmR sway bars, x-brace, auto solutions SSK w/poly bushing upgrade, BMW CD43 head unit, DICE HD Radio w/iPod integration and "stealth" HD antenna, staggered style 68s, orange electronic TPMS, leather arm rest, JT Designs metal undertray acquired and awaiting install: heated seat kit, cali top switch relo, lumbar support kit, park distance control kit, heated washer nozzle kit, m-coupe rear subframe, trailing arms, differential, and halfshafts, m-coupe front/rear brakes with master cylinder, under hood light kit, mud flaps, rear sun blind, auto-dimming rear view mirror, tilt steering wheel retrofit, apexcone 5000K HIDs with 55W ballasts 2002 X5 4.4 Sport Package, 53.5k miles Current Mods: e46 m3 steering wheel | | | 05-31-2005, 03:42 PM | #10 | Member Join Date: Mar 2005 Location: Christiansburg, VA Posts: 73 | Thanks guys, I appreciate it! __________________ 1995 Black 318ti, 5-speed Mostly Stock...
