2007 E60 BMW 5 Series fuel filter DYI

Hello y'all. I couldn't find any video diy's for my particular model so I decided to make this very quick example. If you have any questions please ask on my youtube page for quicker replies.

Good DIY procedure.

When I replaced the fuel filter, I also used screw driver and hammer. As I was hitting the collar ring, the filter itself was turning. So, I had to get a helping hand to use another screw driver to hold the filter in place while I was trying to undo the collar ring. Other than that, it was a relatively simple job. I don't remember if you stated in the video, it'd be good to have as little gas as possible in the tank.

How much was the pump?

OP replaced the fuel FILTER.
Fuel filter is on the drivers side of the tank and the fuel pump is on the passenger side of the tank. Fuel filter is around $150 and the pump is around $200.

Great video, nice and concise! Hit all the important points without wasting time showing how all four screws come out, etc.
