Car shut off while making a fast U-turn...

[94502]

The other day I was in a hurry to work and while driving my X5 I realized that I forgot something I needed for work. I quickly pull to the right a little then made a hard left turn to make the U-turn because the street was kind of small, then my car just shut off after then turn was completed. I manage to pull over without power steering and turn the ignition off then started it back up again.

I didn't know what was the reason was but I asked my older brother because he goes to BMW step program school. He asked me if I was low on gas and I told him I had probally a little less then a quarter to empty. He then told me it was because how the BMW gas tank is designed and how the X5 has a lot of body roll making such a hard turn. He said something about the fuel pump is located to the right side of the tank so when I made a hard right then a hard left, it made the fuel go to the left where the pump doesn't get any fuel so it cause the car to shut off..

Have this every happen to anyone?? I learned not to go on with a low tank and not to make such a hard u-turn and I could have flip the X5..
