This part is listed by BMW as BMW part number 16147276073 and is described as Control Unit For Fuel Pump (EKPS). This module receives signals from the engine computer and adjusts power to the fuel pump to regulate output. It's an electronic version of the older fuel pressure regulator but is also able to vary the pump and system pressure. A failed control module will cause hard starting, stalling, rough running, or low power. A new module must be coded to the car with BMW diagnostic software.
This part is manufactured by an aftermarket supplier of European auto parts, including many electronic components. While not carrying OEM status, this part follows the design of the original very closely and uses similar materials. An aftermarket part may even have the same TUV approval as its OEM counterpart. The brand may even be OEM to another manufacturer besides BMW. This aftermarket brand has a two year warranty - the same as Genuine BMW and OEM brands.
