Cabin Filter SA 1189 (High Performance)
A professional filter element designed for the climate control systems of premium BMW vehicles. It ensures impeccable cabin air purity, effectively handling intense airflows.
Key Features:
Filter Type: Dust (Barrier).
Material: High-tech synthetic fiber, resistant to moisture and temperature fluctuations.
Design: The reinforced structure of the pleats maintains its shape under high air pressure, ensuring uniform filtration across the entire surface.
Applicability (Compatibility):
This filter is designed specifically for BMW SUV generations that require high-performance ventilation systems:
BMW X5 (E70) — all models, produced from 2006 to 2013
BMW X6 (E71 / E72) — all models, produced from 2008 to 2014
Advantages of Use:
Precision Fit: The filter geometry is perfectly matched to the standard BMW housing, eliminating unwanted airflow bypassing the filter material.
Electronic Protection: A clean filter prevents overheating of the resistor unit and heater blower motor, which is critical for maintaining the longevity of the air conditioning system.
Healthy Microclimate: A reliable barrier against fine dust (PM10), mold spores, and allergens, which is especially important during long trips.
Important for BMW owners: On X5 (E70) and X6 (E71) models, the filter is located in the engine compartment under a plastic cover. For maximum cleaning efficiency on these models, it is recommended to change the SA 1189 filter twice a year—before the winter and summer seasons.
