Fitment Notes

• This filter fits the full BMW E65/E66 7 Series generation (2001-2008) across all V8 and V12 engine variants sharing the same airbox architecture
• The 745i/745Li used the N62 4.4L V8; the post-LCI 750i/750Li (2006-2008) used the same N62 in 4.8L displacement - both use this filter
• 760i/760Li fitment covers the N73 6.0L V12 flagship; same airbox design as V8 models
• Alpina B7 fitment confirmed for 2007-2008 with the supercharged 4.4L V8
• Some E65/E66 models have activated charcoal secondary filters in the airbox - if so, see K&N 33-2410 for that application instead
• Does not fit BMW F01 7 Series (2009+) - that generation uses a different airbox and filter
• BMW OEM cross-reference: 13717505007 / 13717526008

Product Description

The K&N 33-2254 is a washable, reusable drop-in replacement air filter engineered for the BMW E65/E66 7 Series fourth generation (2002-2008), covering all powertrain variants from the V6 730Li through the V8 745i, 750i, and the V12 760i/760Li flagship - as well as the Alpina B7. All models in this generation share the same airbox architecture, making the 33-2254 a single direct-fit upgrade across the platform. The filter seats directly into the factory airbox without modification and is fully compatible with OEM MAF sensors.

Only needing cleaning every 75,000 miles, the K&N 33-2254 is a long-term performance and value upgrade for owners of BMW's E65/E66 7 Series. Whether running a 745Li V8 or a 760Li V12, this filter delivers improved airflow and throttle response without voiding the factory warranty. Note: if your airbox contains an activated charcoal secondary filter element, use K&N 33-2410 instead.
