Choosing the right used BMW M4 air filter
Used air filters vary between vehicles - and whether you call it used, second hand or a replacement, matching the right one matters. These are the details breakers need to match the right part to your car - our request form asks them so you only hear from suppliers with the correct part:

Fitment questions
Does the BMW M4 have an air filter, or does it use a different intake setup?
Yes, every BMW M4 has an air filter – it is a standard part of the engine's intake system regardless of generation or variant. The M4 has always been a petrol-engined car, and all petrol engines use an air filter to clean intake air before it reaches the engine. You are looking for the right part.
Will an air filter from an F82 M4 (2014–2020) fit my G82 M4 (2021 onwards)?
These are different generations with entirely different engines – the F82 uses the S55 twin-turbo straight-six, while the G82 uses the S58, so the air filter and airbox are not interchangeable between them. The generation boundary here is important: F82 ran from 2014 to 2020, and the G82 launched in 2021. Always give the breaker your engine code (found on your V5 or a VIN check) alongside your registration to confirm the correct filter.
Does the air filter differ between an earlier and later F82 M4 within the 2014–2020 generation?
The core engine code remained S55 throughout the F82 generation, so the air filter is generally consistent across that run. However, there were minor ancillary and intake detail changes at various points during production, so you should confirm with the breaker against your specific registration rather than assuming any F82 filter will drop straight in.
Does the M4 Competition have a different air filter to the standard M4?
The Competition is a performance and chassis upgrade rather than a different engine – both the standard M4 and M4 Competition use the same engine code within each generation (S55 in the F82, S58 in the G82), so the air filter is the same. Trim level does not affect air filter fitment here, and the Competition badge makes no difference when sourcing this part. Simply quote your engine code and registration to the breaker.
My M4 is a G82 – does it matter whether I have the standard M4 or the M4 xDrive when buying an air filter?
The S58 engine is fitted to both rear-wheel-drive and xDrive (four-wheel-drive) G82 M4 variants, so the air filter relates to the engine rather than the drivetrain layout. In principle the filter should be the same across RWD and xDrive cars sharing the same engine code, but confirm with the breaker against your registration to be certain no intake routing differences affect the part.
Can I use a used air filter from any petrol BMW with the S55 engine in my F82 M4?
The S55 engine was also used in the F80 M3 saloon, so in theory the filter may be shared, and many breakers will cross-reference across those models. That said, airbox and intake configurations can differ between applications, so give the breaker your engine code and registration and let them confirm the part matches rather than assuming it will fit because the engine code is the same.
