Great catch ... Wow - your filter certainly stopped a lot of crap from getting into your injection system.

Great link JGT ... saving money is always a bonus!

Hi, where did you see $144 for fuel pump? In the link you've provided, fuel pump is listed for $251.
If it's $144 (for genuine BMW pump), I will pay right now.

You referenced the wrong part ... the prices you showed were for the fuel PUMP - the original post was about fuel FILTER

I meant the fuel filter part #16146766152

That can happen when you're distracted

That said, if parts shoppers are on the "right" coast they might shop thru Garry at Newport BMW - they also give a (similar) parts discount and their service is pretty quick. http://tinyurl.com/42sygg4

I don't think that $144 is the right number for Genuine Fuel Pump.

I take it back, just found $144 listing...

The part # I listed 16146765826 is for the 2004, the 16146766152 is for later years I suppose. they'res same price for me. Actually I was quoted wrong price, this is $174.40 my cost.
The other site is a steal if these are OEM parts!

Drove it for another half an hour. Even $225 is worth the investment!

I'm at 120K miles now I think I'll replace it just because I don't know if I'll keep car or get rid of it. But either way I'll just make the new owner a happy owner
I have a E46 325 that seems to have a fuel sending unit issue. I haven't really diagnosed it. Sometimes the gauge reads and sometimes it's way off. I'll have to look at this. Car only has 51K miles or so as of now. W
