When should the fuel filter in a BMW 7 Series be replaced?

I have a 2016 BMW 7 Series and I'm approaching 50,000 miles. I've heard that it's important to replace the fuel filter at a certain mileage, but I'm not sure when. Can someone with knowledge of BMWs tell me when it's necessary to replace the fuel filter?

Fuel filters should typically be replaced every 30,000 miles. However, with a car as high-performance as the BMW 7 Series, it's important to follow the manufacturer's recommendation of 50,000 miles. Failure to replace the fuel filter at this mileage could result in decreased engine performance and potential damage to the fuel system.

As a BMW technician, I recommend replacing the fuel filter at 50,000 miles or every 3 years, whichever comes first. This will ensure optimal engine performance and prevent any potential issues with the fuel system. Don't wait too long to replace the filter, as it could result in costly repairs down the line.

I've been a BMW owner for over 10 years and I've always followed the recommended 50,000 mile interval for fuel filter replacement. My car has never had any issues and runs like a dream. Just make sure to use a high-quality fuel filter to ensure longevity of your engine.
