Okay I'm going to do my first fluids change on my 2002 X1 and I can't find an oil filter to replace the one on my bike. After searching the archives on this site I got a list of potential filters.

I went to three stores and could only find a K&N HP 3001 and a Bosch 3330. Both were very different from each other. The K&N was way too big and the black Bosch is what I would consider a shorty filter compared to the long black filter that is currently on my bike.

I have read in the archives about using a Dyna filter that is long (and I think black). Does anyone have a model # for that filter or one just like it. I would like to put a filter that is just like the one on my bike. I have looked the filter over on my bike, but see no markings or numbers to tell me what it is.

So does anyone have a # for the Dyna filter or a long (extra capacity) filter and where could I get it. Between the HD shop (very rude), Advance, and Auto Zone I could only find the (shorty) Bosch and the (wrong) K&N.

If anyone could help I would be greatly appreciative or if you can direct me to an archived post that I am missing that would be great.
Thanks,
Jason

I don't know the partnumber, but just go to your local HD dealer and ask for the long dyna filter.

Long is better for cooling.

use the K&N HP 3001

I have been running that for over 2 years.

There is room...

It holds a bit more oil than the dyna filter... and more oil is better...

You can look here, at the "X1 Files", it gives you several part numbers for different possibilities...scroll down to the oil filter section...

Just go to Walmart and buy a Fram PH8A for a Ford. It has a 8 oz. greater fluid capacity plus it's half the cost!

I just go to the dealer and ask for the long filter - there's only one. You get a choice between black or chrome, though.

I have chromophobia, so I get the black one.

I like the long Dyna filter because it sticks out far enough so you can poke a hole in the end to drain it, and not drip oil on the engine.
