This one issue was a significant enough of a concern that I decided to get rid of my E53 for an E70. To my knowledge the E70 is not afflicted by this particular issue.

I believe the leak test being referring to is not a leak-down test but rather a pressure test to reveal a leak. Leak-down test is a test to help determine the state of the engine.
