 BMW Air Filter  13717503141 For BMW 3' E46 318Ci N42 N46 N45 316i N46 N42 Fitment.

✅ Description

  • 13717503141 (or 13-71-7-503-141) is a genuine OEM air-filter element / air-intake filter designed for certain petrol engines of BMW.
  • As an engine air filter, its main job is to filter intake air — removing dust, debris, and impurities before the air enters the engine. This protects the engine internals, ensures efficient combustion, proper airflow, and helps maintain engine longevity.
  • According to a vendor listing, physical dimensions for compatible aftermarket filters approximating 13717503141 are: outer diameter ~ 170–171 mm, inner diameter ~ 69–70 mm, and height ~ 94–97 mm.

🚗 Fitment — Which Cars / Engines It Suits

13717503141 is primarily used in various versions of the BMW 3 Series (E46) (petrol) — including multiple body types.

Typical compatible variants:

  • 316i / 316ti (with 4-cyl petrol engines, engine codes N40, N42, N46, etc.)
  • 318i / 318ti / 318Ci (similarly 4-cyl petrol)
  • Applies to multiple body styles: sedan (saloon), touring (wagon), compact (hatchback), coupe & cabrio (where relevant) — depending on engine & production year.

Important: This air filter is for petrol 4-cyl engines (N40 / N42 / N46 / N45, etc.) of E46 series. If your BMW uses a different engine (e.g. diesel, 6-cyl petrol, or different generation), 13717503141 may not fit. Always confirm with VIN / engine code before ordering.

🔁 Alternative / Cross-Reference Part Numbers & Aftermarket Equivalents

If you cannot get the OEM filter 13717503141, there are several known aftermarket filters that are designed to be compatible with that OEM number. Some of them:

✅ When & Why to Use 13717503141 / Compatible Alternatives

  • Use 13717503141 when your BMW is an E46 3-Series with 4-cyl petrol engine (316i/ti or 318i/ti/Ci) — this will ensure the correct fit and optimal engine performance.
  • Use a good-quality aftermarket filter (e.g. MANN-C1882 or Hengst-E489L) if OEM is unavailable or expensive — but verify dimensions and OE-reference before purchase.
  • Replace the air filter at recommended intervals (or more frequently if driving in dusty conditions) to maintain engine health, good combustion, fuel efficiency, and to avoid premature engine wear.
