- this video show how to change bmw x3 e83 fuel filter that your filter filter is inside the fuel tank. when you having a clogged fuel filter it may cause your engine fuel efficiency drop, maybe cause to misfire too.
Excellent video! I did this 11 years and 80,000 miles ago. I remember it was tight and had to keep the area well ventilated because of the fumes. Now I’m getting ready to do it again this weekend.
thanks for watching
Thank you! I couldn’t find a video anywhere for this.
thanks watching.

Nice work personally I really appreciate it taking your time to teaching us
Thanks and appreciate
Great video, my X3 filter regulator was very clogged and dark. It would crank long before starting and hesitate to accelerate and also STALL on deep curve exits. Let's see if all the fuel system parts I changed will also benefit from this new fuel regulator
cheers
Great video, I do see that you put the metal aluminum clip (on one of the wire end connection) in the wrong direction. It should not really matter though as long as it is clipped tight. Cheers!
Thanks for the info! cheers
thank you, I just did this repair as well! do you have any idea where the fuel level sensor is? mine just went out
hi, searching online it show it come together with fuel pump. not really sure location. cheers
There are 2 fuel sensors.
Great video and very appreciated.If the owner of the video or anyone in the comment section can help me out with a question it would be appreciated.Can you tell me where does the hose to the pressure regulator is?It got pulled off and don't know where it goes to.
💯💯💯💯….Great Video ‼️…what is the Part #s for these ?
Petro Fuel filter
Over the past 2 weeks my car is dying all of a sudden while going 55 MPH, and the 4x4, ECL, and Brake lights come on. II shut the car off and restart and everything seems fine. have never changed this filter at close to 190k miles (I am 3rd owner though). Could this be the cause ?
It can cause by electric shock out with car analysts computer, it do happen to me as 1 experience of spark plug worn out cause it shock out and as the symptoms of you said. You can do check on all spark plug as this easy job as well before go to big one. Cheers
What kind of lubricant should you use if the fuel tank ring is seized on tight?
wd-40 may help
How do you actually remove the fuel filter? I’m twisting it left and right, it doesn’t want to come out.
@@vezymusic could you remove the filter? i have the same question
This was the most frustrating thing i’ve ever done to a car lol. Well, okay, maybe not. I own 2 german cars so basically every repair is frustrating🤦🏼♂️😅
The video was unclear on how he actually got the fuel filter out. How did you do it?
so as we can see from the owner of the video struggling it would be a little smarter to make sure your car is like almost empty of fuel when doing this procedure
This is for gasoline engine ?
yes, petro.
Looks like a nightmare!😅
😄
Is the video reversed or in europe? the ring turns from the square to the smaller circle?
No taking by reverse
what year and make is the Car ?
2007. e83 . 2.5si
Good
I have a 2013 bmw x3 xdrive28i 2.0 gas is this the same way to change it. He did say Diesel a few times. any one know where it is in my car?
mone one on petro.
by the way that hammer method of getting the retaining nut off will NOT work for everyone. I would just get the special tool before you even start this job -__-
After I get this piece of bmw going it's for sale...never again!
:D

I had the same issue as you described in my 08 X3. Eventually, it won't start at all in the cold morning. I replaced both fuel pump and filter plus the pump module. Problem still persist. Finally, the SPARK PLUG was the culprit. Now start right up first time and no more intermittent hesitation on acceleration. So, before you replace the fuel system, do fuel pressure check first, 72 psi is the ideal reading. I learnt the hard way 😁
So turned out the new fuel injector o-rings solved my issue
@@martinraltenormal maintenance when u hit 60 k .if u forget to change it u will probably get a check engine light code. P171 p174 engine running lean in both banks along with the same symptoms u have described.
