I was at BMW today wanting to buy the loo roll but I didn't know the part number and it is of course not listed for our engines so I'll have to sort that out for Friday when I go pick some more stuff up

just read that,,so the old style breather nousing still fits the new shape type one on the 335d and 330d lci ?,,that what i understand,,but naturally you have to get the number 15 parts to go inside the number 11 breather housing,,ive read a big write u of someone trying to do this but made his own filtervetc,,just wondering why he didnt interchange the breather housings like in this
