Slight engine hesitation.

Hi everyone. I've a 05 3.0d x5 that hesitates ever so slightly at low revs when pulling away from stop.
It happens at about 1200 to 1300 revs in all gears.
Fuel filter?
Fuel pump?
Injectors?
Thanks.

It was my Fuel filter when I had the same issue.

I would say change the fuel filter aswell! When I changed my fuel filter the cars performance improved aswell as the mpg!

out of curiosity, how often does the x5 need a fuel filter change?. when there is an issue or at inspections?

I change mine every service but don't think they need changing that often!
