A few years ago my e39 540i six speed built up some water in the gas tank causing serious problems in extreme weather. The dealer said it was a common problem resulting from ethanol / gasoline. The water dissolves in ethanol and then condensates and separates in the gas tank. Jay Leno is right to rant about this.
