Trace the fuel line on the firewall near the jump battery post to the engine. First sensor on the hardline on the engine.

Looks like there was an X6 pressure sensor in it. Confused but put the right one in that I bought from Bosch

For those that have X5Ms produced pre 10/2011, replacing the line might be required to change the sensor. See note here. http://www.realoem.com/bmw/enUS/show...diagId=13_1269

If anybody needs the newer line, I may still have a used one from ebay. I didn't want to use it as it was bent during shipping. A mechanic shouldn't have any problems having it fitted.

Hey brother, so I looked at the diagram but it looks like the high pressure system? So it looks like the low pressure sensor code is buzzing, any idea of that one?

Yeah but the line and sensor is the low-pressure part of it. The low fuel pressure sensor code was in my X5M when I got. It doesn't produce a CEL nor do I believe the code comes up on standard code readers. I followed the steps the program gave to diagnose the code. Here are some screenshots. The code did not return when replaced the line and sensor.

FYI, my X5M has a 12/2010 build date

Any update on this? I'm having the same issue bmw says I need a new low pressure fuel sensor. So does the hole line need to be replaced? And does any one have pics and a write up on diy. Any info would help thanks.
