My Ride: 2005 545/SMG Sport Package HUD Logic 7 Bluetooth NAV Cold Weather Package
I've noticed that when my ignition is off my fuel pump primes every 7-10 minutes. Or if I open the door after deactivating the alarm the pump also primes the fuel line. Is this normal E60 behavior?

Mine does the same thing as well. I have asked the dealer about it and they have said it is normal.
