TL;DR Disposable pleated-cellulose Workshop-line filter from Bosch covering a wide Nissan/Infiniti application set (Sentra, Rogue, Juke, FX/M/Q/QX) and cross-referencing to OEM part 16546-30P00 across multiple independent databases. The 98% filtration claim is a manufacturer assertion without a cited test standard · and a 2025 counterfeit-unit report on third-party sellers is a real supply-chain caveat worth knowing about before checkout.
The Bosch 5076WS is a disposable pleated-cellulose filter in Bosch's Workshop line · the brand's value tier, positioned below the Premium line. Construction uses treated cellulose media with a polyurethane foam sealing rim (Bosch's own feature bullet · not natural rubber), and genuine units include a metal mesh face on one side of the cardboard frame. Bosch states 98% filtration efficiency in its the product listing but does not cite a test standard (no ISO 5011, no SAE J726, no independent lab), which keeps the filtration_efficiency score at the manufacturer-only evidence cap rather than higher. The OEM cross-reference to Nissan/Infiniti 16546-30P00 is verified across FinditParts, ipdusa.com, RockAuto, airfilter-crossreference.com, and PartCatalog. Bosch defers to the OEM service interval · typically 15,000 to 30,000 miles for the listed applications.
The right pick for a Nissan Sentra (2007·2019), Rogue (2008·2013), Juke (2011·2017), or Infiniti FX/M/Q/QX (2009·2019) owner who wants a credible OEM-tier brand at commodity pricing for routine replacement. Skip if your Infiniti Q50 is a 2020 or newer or your Q60 is a 2018 or newer · Bosch's published application list stops at 2019 for both, and although the OEM 16546-30P00 part number cross-references to later years in some databases, Bosch has not added those years to its own list, so verify with your dealer first. Also worth knowing: owners have documented a counterfeit unit shipped by a third-party seller · prefer the Amazon-direct buybox to reduce supply-chain risk.
Passive replacement component · no chemical exposure pathway during installation or removal; no SDS applies. Environment score of 4, reflecting a standard disposable filter lifecycle: a single-use cellulose-and-cardboard unit replaced on the OEM 15,000·30,000 mile service interval, with composite construction (cellulose media, cardboard frame, polyurethane foam seal, metal mesh face on genuine units) that goes to landfill at replacement with limited municipal recyclability.
An engine air filter only does its job if it actually fits your car, and the same vehicle often takes a different part year to year. Before you buy, find the engine air filter for your vehicle in the CarCareTruth air-filter finder · pick your year, make, and model and we'll show the filters that fit it, ranked by our independent score and cross-checked against multiple catalog fitment sources.
The Bosch 5076WS is confirmed for the Nissan Sentra 2007·2019. It cross-references to OEM Nissan part 16546-30P00 and is verified against FinditParts, ipdusa.com, RockAuto, and airfilter-crossreference.com. Owners report a drop-in fit and a solid seal on the 2017 Sentra S. Always verify the part number against your specific year, make, model, and engine before purchase.
Bosch's Amazon application list covers the Q50 through 2019 only. OEM cross-reference databases like PartCatalog extend the 16546-30P00 OEM part number coverage to later model years (through 2024), but Bosch has not added those years to its published application list. If you have a 2020 or newer Q50, verify the OEM part number with your dealer before relying on this filter · the housing or engine may have changed.
Bosch publishes the 98% figure in the product listing without naming a third-party test method (ISO 5011 or SAE J726 are the industry standards). That is a manufacturer assertion without independent verification, which is why the filtration efficiency score is held at the manufacturer-only evidence cap rather than higher. It does not mean the claim is wrong · it means there is no independent test result for this specific SKU in the reviewed evidence base.
Owners have documented a counterfeit unit shipped from a third-party seller · flimsy cardboard frame, no metal mesh, fewer pleats than genuine Bosch construction. To reduce supply-chain risk, prefer the Amazon-direct buybox over third-party sellers for this SKU. Genuine units have a metal mesh face on one side of the cardboard frame and a polyurethane foam seal.
