Hey Guys,

Is this the E46 M3 fuel pump relay? I got it from behind the passenger side trunk panel next to another green relay.

My car keeps shutting off on 30/40 mile trips and the only remedy seems to be waiting for the car or whatever it maybe to cool down for a bit. I'm thinking the fuel pump relay is overheating and failing.

Doing a quick search.....





These are both fuel pump relays......[emoji19][emoji19]
following this thread the relay is the 4th one to the left, my m3 only has 3 Relays so the layout must have changed from factory:

I also have a bmw m3 but its a 2003 and a convertible,and under the glovebox it only has three relays also have a hard time finding the specific relay,like you said the fourth one on the left but mine only has 3,
