fuel filter for 4.6is
I went to the dealer to pick up a fuel filter for my 03 4.6is. They wanted $142 for the part. I told them never mind. Looked it up online and found a Mahle OEM source filter thru Pelican parts for $50.

Is that a good filter to use?

BMW X5 4.6is - Fuel Injection - Page 1

Price is right anyway, and I have used this brand many times for other filters in Audi's and BMW's.
