I spoke to a Mercedes Service Manager and was instructed NOT to change my own filter. The filter itself requires special tools to remove safely. He also told me that the filter fitting designs have changed over the years and alot of the time not only the filter, but also some of the connecting hoses, need to be changed as well. Changing the hoses requires the back seats, floor, and wheel well to be removed. In optimal shop settings, it takes a qualified Mercedes mechanic over 2 hours to complete the change. I'm a pretty savvy DIYer when it comes to vehicles.... but this repair has real potential to become a Pandora's Box of issues. Sorry folks, but i think this one is better left to the professionals.
How do you change the fuel filter on a 2000 Mercedes ml320? and where is it?
Buy a Hayne's manual for the Mercedes diesel or a Chilton's manual for Mercedes (it has a 123 Mercedes on the cover). It will show you how to change the inline fuel filter and the main fuel filter.

Might be a clogged fuel filter. Change the filter. Then do a fuel volume check to see if the pump is working properly.

Has anyone changed the fuel filter on their 1998 mercedes ML 320?
It
To the best of my knowledge, as an owner of the E class, the filter and the sending unit are contained IN THE FUEL TANK; hence the reason for the $300.00+ charge to change it...
Check your fuel pump and/or fuel pump relays
