The fuel filter on a BMW 5 Series should be replaced every 40,000 kilometers, while the gasoline filter element is recommended to be replaced every 10,000 kilometers. Here is more information about fuel filters: 1. Fuel filters are categorized into diesel filters, gasoline filters, and natural gas filters. The function of a fuel filter is to prevent particles, water, and other impurities in the fuel from causing wear and damage to the precision components of the fuel system. 2. The structure of a fuel filter consists of an aluminum shell and an internal stainless steel bracket. The bracket is equipped with high-efficiency filter paper arranged in a chrysanthemum pattern to increase the flow area.
