It is located under the car just in front of the fuel tank(under the steel or plastic wind deflector which needs to be removed)at the passenger side of the car(on the 318 and 325 touring)

Might be a good idea to get some new fuel hose's whilst your changing the filter as the old ones might be fubbered ?

I think it cost me about 15 quid for both pipes from Sytners.
