Redd Concur on NRW inline fuel filter. Planned near-term PM/upgrade along with new Bosch injectors.
Actually, an early NRW products adapter; their valve covers with silicone grommets. So-far ~3K of spirited driving - - no issues, leaks, all clean and pristine.

So with something like this could I just install it along with new injectors and be all set? Or would I have to also change the fuel pump and fuel filter in the gas tank?..
I just got an e92 with under 50k miles but seeing the other user above blow his engine due to this issue at 60k miles is making me want to err on the side of caution. |

Bought & test installed NRW in line fuel filter, it’s high quality but the fitment is not OEM level given the tight space, filter bracket runs against the plastic ignition coil cover & the flexible fuel line to the rail needed to be relocated & twisted beyond my comfort level, also said rubber fuel line now sits closer/in the way of significant radiant heat from the driver side exhaust header.
I know some people have installed these & are happy, I personally wasn’t comfortable, so removed it. Another thing is, the NRW or similar fuel filter should not be considered an alternative to replacing fuel injectors at regular intervals as they may already be clogging up as most cars have 50,000 miles or greater.. I wish the NRW filter were smaller in size, it would fit so much better.. |

Miles: 40,000 miles Injector Failure symptoms: raw fuel smell, limp mode reduced power, rough idle. Duration driven with symptoms: less than one kilometer, but I made another mistake that prevented me from saving that engine. Secondary failure: hydrolock because of several attempts to start the engine and investigate. one of those startups end up in starter locking up, and con rod fatigued, then engine blew up after injectors were replaced. cylinder walls were in pristine condition. Injector failure cause or theory: I bought the car far from home, and came driving it home, about 600 miles. previous owner always used bad (common) quality fuel. I got home, let the tank full of top tier gas, and went away for work for 2 weeks. after come back, at first ride it happened. do the math. common gas, high deposits. top tier gas, high cleaning. That was the moment of the hydrolock: |
