Product Description

The BMC FB986/20 high-flow panel air filter is designed as a direct replacement for the factory air filter in Porsche Panamera models equipped with a variety of V6 and V8 engines from 2016 through 2024. Built using multi-layer oiled cotton gauze filtration media and reinforced with an epoxy-coated alloy mesh within a full-mold rubber frame, this premium filter improves airflow while maintaining excellent filtration efficiency for enhanced engine breathing and throttle response.

Washable and reusable for long service life, the FB986/20 installs directly into the original factory airbox with no modifications required. This filter is ideal for drivers looking to improve engine efficiency and intake performance compared to stock paper filters while still protecting the engine from contaminants. Its design supports a wide range of Panamera II (971) and early Panamera III (972) variants with both V6 and V8 powertrains.
