Next to the oil cap under a black guard.
Most European cars use a cartridge type oil filter. It's on the top of the engine, usually near the power steering reservoir. Use the proper oil filter cap wrench to remove the cap and filter assembly. Replace the cartridge and related seals, and install a little more than hand tight. You need to remove the filter before draining the oil pan, or the oil contained in the filter housing will not be changed.
Turn it counterclockwise to remove.

There is a large plastic cover under the hood covering the engine. On right side it says "oil filter". Under that is the oil filter. You need to remove the 4 bolts holding on the plastic cover and then remove the cap to the oil filter (with an oil filter wrench). The oil filter is inside. The cap does not get replaced.
The Oil Filter on this car is what is called a "clip-in" filter the way you remove it is to simply have the correct sized wrench, and remove the Cap and the filter should come with it.
The oil filter is accessed freom the top of the engine. Remove the oil cap then pull up on the big black plastic cover that's over the engine. remove the cover. On your right side down about 4 in from the top of the engine there is a black plastic cap The oil filter is in this cap so you need a 1-1/4 inch socket or wrench to remove the cap and replace the oil filter
Remove engine cover and its next to the oil cap its a round plastic cap unscrew with the special tool or a big plyers and filter is under cap
BMW uses an upstairs filter, meaning the filter is not located under the car, but instead under the hood.For 1995 and older it is located between the engine head and alternator, directly behind the upper radiator hose. It should have a metal cap, held down with a 13mm bolt. Some do use a plastic cap.For 1996 and newer, it is in the same location, but with a plastic cap instead of a metal cap/bolt. You will need a filter wrench to remove this cap
