If there is reason to be suspicious of a fuel filter, take it off and dump the contents into a container. A bowl or something will be fine. You will be able to easily see if the filter has sediment or water and judge if it needs replacing or not. I no krud is found, fill it with fresh fuel and put it back on

Edit: Another thing.... Additives that remove water.... Where do you suppose the water ends up?? Hint: I'm getting to be an expert on this from dealing with the fuel tank problems on my 240D.
