Yes, it happened twice to me on my e53. I was told that I could buy the special CCV heated wrap which warms the CCV and prevents from freezing, but it was $1800. I opted not to get it.
Good thing too, as this heated wrap seems to be another point of failure: https://www.reddit.com/r/BMW/comment...7R&sh=a1521f50 Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

every winter cold snap this get posted and re-posted - "My 3.0 is burning oil, leaking oil everywhere under the hood" and the Original Post is a perfect example of "it died and was towed" story.
Guys, REPLACE YOUR CCVC (aka Oil separator), lines and dip stick tubes with the cold weather ones if you are a daily driver and you live anywhere north of FL. If you just purchased it, replace it now, don't wait until it dies as it will. Be proactive and you will be a lot happier.

Not my listing, no financial interest, just passing along a good deal, as the E53 M54 cold weather dipstick is about $90 alone:

Search forum for "BavarianE39 CCV Mod", I did this a year ago:
1. Oil consumption is down to zero (instead of 1qt/400 miles). 2. This mod solves the CCV Oil hydrolock issue. Win-win situation.
