E90 330d air and fuel filter replacement intervals

Guys,

looking for advise on the recommended interval of air and fuel filter change on a pre-LCI 330d. I changed them when i purchased the car on 155k km's and it is now on about 184k.

I do oil changes every 7500km's so not too concerned about that but need clarity on the other two. Which other items get checked/replaced when the cluster is showing the "car on the lift" symbol?

Thanks in advance.


Managed to find the below info. Confirmation of correctness will be appreciated.

Service - engine oil: Change engine oil and oil filter

Handbrake: Brake in and check for correct function

A/C system or automatic A/C: Change microfilter

At every 3rd engine oil change (approx 45000 km's)

- Intake silencer: change air cleaner element. Shorten intervals accordingly for vehicles operated in dusty regions.

- Replace main fuel filter. (If necessary, shorten filter-change intervals in case of poor diesel quality)

Resetting CBS display according to factory specification

I personally change all filters and oil every 8000kms, except for the micro filter

Even the fuel filter? Seems a bit excessive. I do oil, oil filter and air filter every 10k kms and fuel filter every 3rd service 30k kms and the microfilter whenever it needs doing.

Yep even the fuel filter, I've removed the heater that sits behind that fuel filter and replaced with a longer fuel filter

Yeah I see. Does it not throw a code without the heater plugged in?
 
I just wanted to ask now that it's mentioned . I'm also servicing my 330d lci soon and wanted to know where the diesel filter is located ? I know it's under the undercarriage guards but where exactly? Thanks.
