The fuel pump may be defective or the fuel filter may be clogged. Replace the fuel filter if you hear the pump run when you first turn on the ignition without starting the engine. It should run for a few seconds. If you do not hear the pump running, check the fuse and the fuel pump relay. If you hear it run and after replacing the fuel filter you still have no fuel, the pump is defective and must be replaced.

You never hear the fuel injectors. You may hear the fuel pump if you listen carefully. Start by replacing the fuel filter. If that does not help, have a fuel pressure test run to see if the pump is weak.
Is there a way to check to see if a fuel pump is bad if fuel pump is in the tank?
You can have someone turn the ignition key to the on position without starting the engine while you listen at the fuel filler door with the cap off. You should hear the pump come on and run for a few seconds then shut off. If you hear nothing check the fuel pump fuse and fuel pump relay. If both are good the pump is defective. If you hear the pump run that does not necessarily mean it is actually pumping fuel. A fuel pressure test at the fuel rail well verify the condition of the pump.

How to test for bad fuel pump or fuel filter in a 2001 BMW 325i?
First just replace the fuel filter as it is a maintenance item that should be replaced regularly. If you hear the pump running when you turn on the ignition without starting the engine, that means the fuel pump relay is OK. If you do not hear the pump suspect a bad relay or fuse. If you hear the pump, and you still have a problem, you may have a weak pump.
