The aFe 30-10226 replaces the original airbox filter in the specified applications with five layers of factory-pre-oiled cotton gauze. The current exact manufacturer names F30 335i 2012–2015 and F87 M2 2016–2018 with the N55 3.0L turbo six-cylinder. Exact ECS and New German Performance tables separately support the existing 435i, Gran Coupe, xDrive, GT and M235i variants with individual years and restore ActiveHybrid 3 F30 2013–2015 N55. That is an engine air-filter application on a hybrid, not a battery or electric-drive filter. Some exact retailer year tables start 335i xDrive in 2013 while the legacy row starts in 2012; the early xDrive market/year remains a hold rather than a new approved extension. The retailer M2 Competition 2019 claim conflicts with the N55-specific manufacturer scope and is not added; S55 Competition uses a different two-filter arrangement. Non-US M135i rows are not mass-added from shared engine names.

One Pro 5R OE-replacement air-filter element for the verified housing and engine application described here; this is not a complete intake system.
Which application should I verify?The current exact manufacturer names F30 335i 2012–2015 and F87 M2 2016–2018 with the N55 3.0L turbo six-cylinder. Exact ECS and New German Performance tables separately support the existing 435i, Gran Coupe, xDrive, GT and M235i variants with individual years and restore ActiveHybrid 3 F30 2013–2015 N55. That is an engine air-filter application on a hybrid, not a battery or electric-drive filter. Some exact retailer year tables start 335i xDrive in 2013 while the legacy row starts in 2012; the early xDrive market/year remains a hold rather than a new approved extension. The retailer M2 Competition 2019 claim conflicts with the N55-specific manufacturer scope and is not added; S55 Competition uses a different two-filter arrangement. Non-US M135i rows are not mass-added from shared engine names.
Is the Pro 5R media oiled?Washable and reusable oiled cotton media. Use aFe POWER CLEANER and the specified blue air-filter oil; this is not oil-free Pro DRY S media.
Does the flow percentage guarantee more engine power?The exact manufacturer advertises up to 46% greater filter flow than stock. This is not a 46% engine-power or hybrid-range increase.
How does this filter seal?Its progressive bump seal and full polyurethane perimeter frame conform to the original housing. The manufacturer says separate filter gaskets or sealants are not required; the existing housing must still close and secure correctly.
Are a hose coupler and cleaning kit supplied?The exact listing identifies an OE-replacement filter. A generic Coupler Included field does not establish a separate hose package; no airbox, tube, sensor, cleaner or oil bottle is documented as supplied.
Does the ActiveHybrid 3 application justify all hybrid or M2 Competition models?No. Exact sources identify the F30 ActiveHybrid 3 N55 engine airbox for 2013–2015. That does not prove other hybrid housings or the S55 M2 Competition, and no electric-drive component is supplied.
When should I clean and re-oil it?Inspect according to actual dust exposure and restriction. Washable and reusable oiled cotton media. Use aFe POWER CLEANER and the specified blue air-filter oil; this is not oil-free Pro DRY S media. Use low-pressure rinse from the clean side toward the dirty side, let the element dry naturally and allow the specified oil to wick before reinstalling. Do not use heat, compressed air or excess oil. Do not treat an older general-care mileage example as a guaranteed interval for every vehicle or environment.
No vehicle-specific installation PDF or numeric airbox torque is linked on this exact manufacturer page. Follow the original housing service procedure and the correct oiled Pro 5R maintenance directions. Read the manufacturer media maintenance guidance.
