I'm familiar with this thread.

No worries man. I wasn't sure. It's become a long thread.

Hopefully BMC realizes their mistake soon.

Were you able to order one before they updated the price

iconoclast · 03-18-2021, 03:00 PM

It did not process so I was not able to purchase.

denaliman · 03-21-2021, 05:13 PM

Another delay in Canada. ETA April 3rd.

M50iStiller · 03-25-2021, 04:20 PM

I just got the filters in today. I got them from Euro Filters in Ohio. Anyone remove the intake silencers yet? I would be interested to see pics or get part# needed for this. I'd like to do this with the filter install.

stockli81 · 03-26-2021, 10:19 AM

Mine is supposed to be coming today... we will see, tracking for a 30th delivery so it went through

M50iStiller · 03-27-2021, 07:41 AM

Installed the filters.last night. Took me around 20 minutes all together. They fit in perfectly. Haven't really driven it too much. From what I can tell there is a little louder grunt in the lower range. Hoping to get those silencers removed next.

iconoclast · 03-27-2021, 08:47 AM

Does EuroFilters have them in stock as of now?

iconoclast · 03-28-2021, 08:45 AM

Incorrect, ECS has stock that arrives March 31st / tomorrow. I have an order placed with them and they provided that in an email to myself as of last week.

iconoclast · 03-30-2021, 01:29 PM

I guess something changed but I spoke with them back on the 15th and that was the date they gave me but would not honor the advertised price that they initially posted on their site.

stockli81 · 03-30-2021, 01:57 PM

My order from ECS arrived yesterday... all looks good, will install these over the weekend

M50iX5 · 03-31-2021, 09:08 AM

Latest date for Canada to ship is April 17th now 🙁

Geez.....it will end up being May. Maybe it's stuck in the Suez....

stockli81 · 04-02-2021, 04:55 PM

Install done... The most pain in the ass part was removing and replacing the screws!! Other than that was quick, both Charcoal and regular air filter gone new ones in... Not sure if it's the filters, the cold snap we have, or both... but you can tell the car is slightly quicker, negligible... Or, could all be in my mind! Summer 22s are back on today as well

heeblet · 04-02-2021, 09:49 PM

Does anyone have the air box screw part no. ? I lost one into the engine bay...

You unscrewed it all the way huh? No chance in seeing that screw somewhere and using a magnet?

stockli81 · 04-03-2021, 06:09 PM

BTW, now that we have these filters in, one thing forgot to check is.... Will these filter allow more dirt into the engine? This is an afterthought but anyone worried about that for the negligable difference in performance?

stockli81 · 04-03-2021, 06:17 PM

looms like BMC finally updated there site to include the X5 X5M* m50i - X6M* m50i - X7 m50i -
