BMW E39 Engine Stalling Fuel Filter Replacement 525i 528i 530i 

What's the 3rd line for that's not attached to the filter but held up by the same hangers (the one closest to outside of car)?

I'm pretty sure my fuel filter in my 540 is the original one from 97' 😂 Haven't had a problem with it though and gas here in Sweden is usually of very high quality, but still, that old fuel fulter gotta go soon. Car has 200 000 km on it.

So this happened to my car today, thinking about the filter. The car started but it bogged down and died, cranked but didn’t start for a while, went and disconnected and reconnected the fuel pump relay in the trunk and it started right up for 15 seconds and then it died again. Now it starts but it won’t stay on.

hey i have a 528i 2000 and its has a steady 4&5 misfire i need help finding out why i replace bunch of parts and sensors

Had same issue. Turned out to be cts

Unplug maf. Ride out !!! 🤙🏼 not the best thing but it’ll get you by for a quick min till you can afford a new one

Siemens air mass usually lasts for me 1year and 2 months only then car acting like a hell Then I bought another one it's ok till now 😁

Wow this crap was so dumb bruh how am I supposed to change mines when you fast forward the crap out of it hahahahaha omg smh 🤦🏽‍♂️

My 540i has 385,000 k on it. Now and again it stalls, then other times it will run fine. I considered changing the fuel pump, but I might pull the filter out and see what's inside. Apart from this it runs extremely well. Thanks for the video.

had the same problem fitted new airflow meter all fixed e39 523i

I changevevery 3 ...4 years ..it is easy job and cost almost nothing

Did you find the issue?

got a few issues. BMW struggles to start. then it starts. Switch engine off and struggles to restart but it does after about 10 secs. then another issue. Key in Ignition. car starts up good. run for a while. turn off. key out. key in and well shit the system livens up and ffails to turn over let alone crank. Repeat this several time in 1 min then eventually it starts to crank. can you help . 525 TDS, 1997 can just purchased with 200K kms on the clock and no history at all.

Hey I have a 2003 E39 530i and my gas gauge keeps playing going up and down and can’t figure what it might be? Any idea thanks

I'm twice as old....when I have a car with this milage/age, I drop and clean the tank and change all filters---then check operation of injectors 15 yrs of sluge in tank

Thanks for all the informative videos. Which BMW application told you about the airflow issue? I'm just now starting to learn about INPA, ISTA, Rheingold, etc. But not sure which of these applications can indicate problems before they turn into codes that can be read by basic OBD scanners. TIA!

I have a 525i 2005 and I can't find filter

A failed fix is still a good experiment. Great information.

Hi mate, Due to you experience.I own a 535i e39 2003 it seems to change up gears and change back down under light load,up a hill it feels like it can't deside what gear to be in. I have booked it in to check auto fluid level and plug change ect any ideas ?

Awesome Video Nathan, I repaired my fuel injectors and I started my car up. My car sounds like a Shelby Cobra (magnaflow cat) but my car kills out around 500 RPM's. Ive checked my MAF, ICV, fuel rails, vaccume & leaks on '97 540i automatic. I am very lost at what it might be, any suggestions will be very helpful.

Clean the theotthle body plates as well

I like your Sun Glasses Nathan.

Can u work on my bmw?

My e39 cut off on me twice. I had like a quarter tank and it cut off. Is it the fuel pump and filter ? I was on the gas and it wouldn’t accelerate. What do you think ?

khk

Is it hard to diagnose MAF? Will it throw a code to point at it easily?

Hi. Is it recommended to replace the fuel filter when replacing the fuel pump? Thank you

Lawd Fadda, I just can't resist!....... Right from the start, this was a very poor video of continuous events and failures! "seemed entirely like guesswork and trial an error troubleshooting! Change anything and everything until we get it right! But,>>>>>>> It brings me back to something my father always said to me....The more bells and whistles you have on a car, the more that can go wrong! "IN OTHER WORDS, KEEP IT SIMPLE"! Fuel Filter?? KEEP IT BLOODY SIMPLE!!!!!!! As for your promotional products, well you do that as much justice as you do the entire video. Shameful in my opinion! The least you could do it look up their website, learn what they have to offer and the benefits of each item. You could not even spend the time let alone explain and detail their product!! If I could give you a 1000.00 dislikes, I would!

What was the end result of this vehicle? Are you able to drill down the issue and fixed it? I would love to know the conclusion. Thanks
