Product Details

• Article Number: 8A0080 — Ridex air filter insert, an economy-tier OEM-equivalent replacement offering the same filtration efficiency as original BMW filters at a fraction of the price. Manufactured using high-quality pleated filter media to maximize surface area.
• Filter Type: Filter Insert (panel-style) — drops directly into the existing OEM airbox housing. No modifications or adapters needed.
• Length: 176 mm — one of the outer dimensions of the rectangular filter frame. Verify against the vehicle's airbox cavity for proper fitment.
• Width: 142 mm — the shorter outer dimension. Combined with length and height, these three measurements ensure the filter seats flush against the housing gasket for an airtight seal.
• Height: 70 mm — depth of the filter media pack. Deeper filters typically offer greater dust-holding capacity and longer service intervals.
• Condition: New — unused, supplied in original Ridex packaging.
• Manufacturer: RIDEX — AUTODOC's in-house budget aftermarket brand. Ridex filters use multi-layer pleated paper media with reinforced rubber sealing edges for durability.
• OEM Cross-References: Chevrolet / GMC / Opel / Vauxhall 91159955, Dacia 16 54 631 64R (plus additional manufacturer cross-references — fits multiple vehicle platforms beyond BMW).
• Vehicle Compatibility: Designed for BMW X3 F25 sDrive 20i platform. Broadly cross-compatible with several European vehicle platforms using the same filter dimensions. Always verify against your vehicle's VIN or existing filter part number before purchasing.
• Service Interval: Typically replaced every 20,000–30,000 km or annually. Inspect more frequently in dusty environments (common in Tanzanian driving conditions — dirt roads and seasonal dust can significantly shorten filter life).
