Hi everyone, I have a 2010 E350 Coupe, with about 49,000 miles on it, and I have been reading that the fuel filters go to about 60k miles. From what I have read, and I am hoping I'm wrong, is that the fuel pump also needs to be replaced. I have found absolutely zero videos or forums or threads on how to do this yourself at home, and I am really not trying to spend the ungodly amount of money at the dealership to fix this. I have read that on the 2012 sedans, you have to remove exhaust, driveshaft, and gas tank? I am not sure where to look next. I understand this is a long and daunting project for a DIY'er, but I am willing to spend any amount of time if that means I am saving money in the end, not to mention the satisfaction from doing a job like this. Any advice, criticisms, **** talking, or instructions would be so greatly appreciated! Cheers boys and happy holidays!!

yeah...no need for any of that. Konigstiger put up the PDFs for the info. Just pull the rear seat cusion and there is a ring on both sides, under plates with three 8mm screws. Pump is on the right side(Passenger Side in USA, filter assembly is on the left(USA, Driver's Side). You don't NEED the removal tool for the rings, but it is helpful. I just take mine off with a hammer and a flat punch...lol
