It's a design flaw that allows the joint to flex until the o-ring pops out the side. Every e53 will do this given enough time. Both of ours did like clockwork at about 130,000 miles.
If you always full up early it will mask the issue and you'll find out the hard way that one time you need to use more range and most likely not near home.

Right on, seems like an easy enough fix. Is there anywhere I can easily score things like O-Rings? Seems hard to come about specific pieces in-store.
