On my MY 2001 BMW X5 3.0 engine it has this fuel filter with a regulator and a connection for a vacuum line.

It would be nice of you to stop suggesting that posts come flying out of my a#s.
I reviewed that entire section regarding fuel filter. I never trust my memory.

Adrian said his filter was the same as the old one and that the old one did not have a vacuum line. I also reviewed Adrian's summary and he states that his X ran fine for 500 miles after installing the new filter.
Adrian has been through hell on this. If he made a mistake we have found it, big deal. I am surprised he is not in the funny farm by now.
