Hi Dave,just a quick update on the non starting X3,took the fuel filter apart and replaced the thin rubber seal that goes in-between,but still no start! Put my Autel scanner on it and found a bleed fuel system on it,run that fired up the pump for a bit and the engine started. So all good. Still hasn't cured the lack of power,thought it may of been a clogged fuel filter hence changing that! It's Like there is no boost. Flipping embarrassing on hills,It's burning oil so I'm thinking the turbo is at fault. But don't have the eml on!Can anyone confirm my thoughts on the turbo or any other ideas on the lack of power. Many thanks Daryl

Hi Dave,thank you for your reply,it was running before i got my hands on it🤣the car is not local to me so will probably have another go this Sat. But will try what you've suggested and many thanks! Will update the progress on this! Cheers Daryl

Hi,new to this site! Changed the fuel filter on my 2008 X3 2.0d E83 and it won't start for love nor money now! Done the switch the ignition on for 30 seconds numerous times but still not starting! Presuming air in the fuel system,can anyone out there tell me how to bleed the system as can't see a manual bleeder anywhere! Thanks in advance Daryl
