Been considering installing the K&N Intake system for my 2019 F60 All4 S. Have any of you had any experience with this system?
I know I can expect little to no actual power gains but if it increases the fun level a little bit then I might just go for it.
Fit? Fitment? Performance? Issues?
love to hear from anyone on this forum that has tried this system.
Same system fits the X1 which is how i had to search it on the K&N site.
Thanks.

If it's a drop-in filter replacement, you will not notice any difference except the savings you get from not having to replace your paper air filter. I have K&N on a few of my cars, and unless you're going to a full replacement cold air intake (aka CAI) system, then there is no audible difference. The jury is out about CAIs, too, including just how "cold" the intake air is with them. They sound cool, though. The downside with the K&N system is that: a) you have to clean/oil the filter yourself and; b) some people over-oil the filter which results in residue on the MAF and may result in poor performance. Personally, I would save my money and just put in quality paper filters as part of seasonal maintenance.
