The kind that tells you to bend over and hand over your hard earned money.

I've seen those but I went with a local seller, just because I know I can find them if I have to.

I just replaced the microfilters myself which was long overdue. This is gotta be the easliest DIY maintenance, I've ever done. The whole process took less than 5 minutes. And I saved myself almost $150. The stealer wants $190 for this service, I said "No, thanks." and then ordered the OEM filters from eBay for $42 shipped.
Thanks Rizbel for the DIY instructions.

I found this:

What does it mean:
NOTES: 1 SET OF 2 CARBON ACTIVATED FILTERS

[font="'Times New Roman"]Do we have to buy 2 of them?[/font]

Yes. You need one on each side. There are 2 filters to change.

does the 2008 550i have one or two microfilter(s)? and why would it need two if it actually does? Is the charcoal filter better or the plain cotton filters?
