Engine Air filter replacement?

Hey Guys,

Was just wondering if anyone can post a guide how to replace the engine air filter on the N26?

I really don't want to wait for next 2 years for 20k more miles to replace them.

Thanks!

I just changed my wife's N55 air filter last night. She's at about 30k. I agree, I also felt the dealer was taking too long to replace. The old filter was really dirty. I know the N26 is different so this might not help but the N55 took about 5 minutes to change. There are 6 torx bit screws that run around the outer edge of the air box. Once removed the lid just lifts up and you can pull the old and drop in the new.

I'll put the old one back in next time her X3 goes in for service.
