This particular fuel filter is made for the first generation BMW X5 models built April of 2002 and newer. This includes the later half of the 2002 model year, as well as ALL the 2003, 2004, 2005, and 2006 model year BMW X5, including the X5 3.0 liter, X5 4.4i, X5 4.6is, and X5 4.8is (straight six and V8 engine models).

A clogged fuel filter will usually cause hard starting, drivability issues, and even lean condition fault codes. It could also cause more severe damage to fuel injectors, fuel pump, or even internal engine damage if fuel shortage issues are not solved quickly. A fuel filter is cheap insurance and not to be overlooked!
