I have new 530i!
Very often vhen i brake and stop i hear some kind of not loud but iritating bumping (usualy one bang) which is comeing from the back of my car(i think thats comeing from the back of my car but i am not 100% sure).
I went to service and they said that thats fuel hitting the edges of my tank which is normal thing, but that sounds unbelievably to me?
I know that the new bmw 5 is very quiet car and that you can hear things which you could not hear before in old bmw 3 or 5 but i just can't belive that's noise comeing from my tank...
What do you think could that be true?
Does anybody have that kind of problem? Help!

maybe the fuel you are using is not soft enough! 
No tank should be making noises, certainly other e60s aren't noisy in that way. (maybe go for a test drive in a new model and see if it makes the same sound).
