That's the wrong filter. The genuine filter is a Mahle Knecht & has more connection points. Please buy a genuine filter. The fuel filter contains the fuel system pressure regulator & we have had endless trouble with non genuine filters on this forum. Cost is around $100 I think. Try RMeuropean.

Change approx every 75K miles.

Sadly Glyn is right we have seen so many fuel regulator issues with the fuel filters go with OEM/OES
