In this video, I replace the oil filter housing on a BMW 330i (G20) equipped with the 2.0L B48 turbo engine — without removing the intake manifold.
This repair shows a faster and more efficient way to do the job, saving you hours of labor.
You’ll see step-by-step how to:
Diagnose a leaking oil filter housing
Access and remove the housing without taking off the intake manifold
Replace the housing and seals correctly
Reassemble, torque to spec, and check for leaks
This process applies to all BMW 330i (2019–Present G20) models with the B46/B48 engine, as well as similar setups on the X3, X4, and Z4.
🔧 Skip unnecessary work and learn the easy method to replace the housing cleanly and correctly.

Im also planning to replace heat management module. I think i need to remove the manifold. Can see the module from the footage
Hey brother , so I changed out the oil filter housing and going back with all the electrical, I have one 4pin plug with a yellow casing, by any chance do you know what it plugs up to
Why did you use original parts and not replace it with an aluminium one more resistant to that problem??
Does it use the green coolant? I thought BMW coolant is BLUE.
