I had a Mann fuel filter from the previous owner so gave that to the shop. They called and said it was a fuel filter not an oil filter so they didn't need it.

Every single BMW I have ever owned has come to me with the factory date coded filter, every single one gets a new Mann in it and every time it runs better. Change your fuel filter ppl.
How old is that fuel filter? The "die on a hill" is a typical scenario for these old EFI Japanese cars when the filter is beyond saving.
So i went and replace the fuel filter to a Mann fuel filter but that did not solve the issue.
I replaced my V7 III fuel filter with a Mann MWK 44.
I had a spare intake so I took the two sensors from that fuel rail and swapped those along with a Mann 6.6 bar fuel filter onto the car. Started the car and it turned on and ran wonderful (so it seemed).
I use Mann filter. They're trustworthy and not very expensive either
I am a sucker for Mann so I bought it. Took out the old filter, and no fuel coming from inside the filter. Slammed it couple of times and finally the fuel came out, black. It’s literally like black coffee coming out from the filter. Installed the new fuel filter, and cranked the car couple of time to let the fuel pumped to the engine. And finally it starts, but it misfired here and there. Crank it couple more times and it starts normally. The idle is absolutely silky smooth. And the performance improved a lot.
Mann from ECS for me. Every other filter change I pull what fuel is left in the housing, refill with your diesel treatment of choice and then prime. For me it’s just a bit of extra lube for the pump on my ‘14 JSW. When I skip this step I don’t prime and never had an issue.
The best would be OEM. But Mann is what I used to replace mine. Didn\u2019t feel any difference though and I had about 108k on my car.
