Have you changed a BMW filter from the last 25 years? It is open element. You can see the media when you pull it out and all the oil dripping from inside and outside the media. The filter has already been inspected by a professional. The OP knows far less. I see no point.

He should take the car to another shop if he wants a second opinion.
