Hi ... I was wondering if there is a micro filter in the venting system of the E36, my friends 320i venting isn't working well ... seems that it lacks air pressure.

need help ... Thanks :)

Yep. Easier to replace than on the E34 too.

Can't say for sure if all years are the same (you didn't say what year), but probably this would cover all E36s.

There's this site, but it's pretty bad...

Here's a better site for it, I think this is the one I used before I got my Bentley's:

It's well worth the effort, I try to change mine yearly - you'd be amazed at the crap they trap.
