E46 M54 Fuel Filter/Regulator

[DJGyron]

Good Evening All,

I'd like to get some clarity on a recent purchase of a BMW E46 M54 Fuel Filter/Regulator. The brand is Bosch and the model number is F5952(part number I assume is 0450905952). On the box it references Mann WK532/1; Mahle KL149 and Purflux EP200. From what I can gather on the internet, all of them seem to be exactly the same and should work the same in theory. Has anyone had any experience with the Bosch brand or the other brands mentioned above? Which, if any, is better? I also see that Fram makes a similar copy available on takealot.

Thank you in advance.

I only have experience with the Bosch, which is the one I always put on my 330s. I assume the others would be fine, but being a fan of Bosch I always put the Bosch in and have no issues ever with those specific parts.

The Bosch is a good part, go with it.

I managed to install the new Bosch one and it works fine.
