So my friend’s e46 died at 1/2 tank on the highway and wouldn’t restart. Turned out to be the fuel pump. Since he wants to sell it anyway, I changed out my fuel pump for a new one I’ve had lying around and gave him the old one. Works just fine and only 40k miles on it.
Bummer. A little extra cleaning never hurt no one tho

Did you use the BMW Genuine Part or OEM fuel pump?So my friend’s e46 died at 1/2 tank on the highway and wouldn’t restart. Turned out to be the fuel pump.

That was the brand that I also pulled out when my fuel pump went Kaput. So I ordered and replaced with genuine part. And genuine part was also VDO.
So, what gives with the original BMW part? I know the fuel pump was never replaced before I did.

BMW contracted with VDO to produce the pump for them.

I just ordered a VDO pump from FCP. It's labeled as VDO.
