Changing Fuel filter and regulator
Anybody done this....which bits do I need?
http://www.realoem.com/bmw/showparts...08&hg=13&fg=10 I am presuming 1,3,4,5,6 ? |
Yes mate, from memory you will need part 1 it comes with o ring part 3, also need part 2 I believe from Dealer all comes together ie part 4,5,6.....I enquired when i did filter, have not yet replaced regulator, but is on to do list.
Easy to do all comes off together.... let me know how you get on with new reg....any difference etc... |
on second thoughts I remember you can buy part 4 which comes with 5,6,7 but better off replacing housing as well while ur at it I thought....

Cheers guys.
Change the filter, regulator, o ring and circling yesterday so now need a hot trAckday to test out the cooling! It sounded like a bag of spanners for 5 minutes after but then all settled down. Easy job, even time for a ciggy whilst I did it! Cheers for the tea Billy! (did you remember to lock the door?) :-D |
Shim, roughly what mileage are you carrying?

Fuel filter (1) and copper washer (3) Regulator (4) [which comes with 5+6 fitted] and circlip (7) Got them fitted no issues, except it takes a few minutes for the car to run evenly and fuel pressure to get up to even pressure I guess. On getting home I decided to cut open the Filter (non service item) and see what it was like. aluminium construction with steel threaded end. I cut it open with an angle grinder. Something I can't do with the regulator (it's too small) so I need to borrow someone's dremmel with metal cutting disc :) so I can see if the vacuum disc is broken. http://i401.photobucket.com/albums/p...L/325cc1c1.jpg http://i401.photobucket.com/albums/p...L/808d4013.jpg http://i401.photobucket.com/albums/p...L/832da755.jpg http://i401.photobucket.com/albums/p...L/a393d4c2.jpg http://i401.photobucket.com/albums/p...L/5faea5ab.jpg |
