There’s a certain confidence that comes from riding a BMW—smooth power, clean lines, and an engine that feels like it was built with intention. The Quicksilver 8M0130572 Oil Filter carries that same energy. Every time you fire up the bike, whether you’re cruising along a quiet back road or threading through early-morning traffic, you’ll know your engine is protected by a filter that actually keeps up with the machine it serves.

This filter gives you that steady reassurance riders appreciate most. No drama, no surprises—just a clean, reliable flow of oil that keeps the engine running cool and healthy mile after mile.

Performance & Practical Benefits

From the moment you install it, you’ll notice how solid and secure the 8M0130572 feels. It threads on smoothly and seats firmly, giving you that tight, confident fit that tells you the seal is good. Once the engine is running, the filter’s high-capacity media steps in to protect the entire lubrication system, keeping contaminants from circulating and maintaining a smooth, consistent oil flow.

The anti-drain-back valve plays a critical role—especially after the bike sits overnight or through colder weather. Instead of the system emptying out and the engine suffering a dry start, the valve keeps oil where it needs to be. The result is less wear, quicker oil pressure buildup, and a calmer-sounding engine as it warms.

Riders who run their bikes hard will appreciate how well the filter manages heat and pressure. The synthetic media doesn’t collapse, clog, or lose efficiency when pushed. Paired with synthetic oil, it keeps the engine responsive, cool, and steady—whether you’re navigating mountain climbs or rolling at highway speeds for hours.
