Anyone had the expansion tank/coolant reservoir hose crack off?

Driving home today the hose cracked at the thermostat and sprayed coolant all over the engine bay? Fortunately I was at a place where I could stop immediately and determine the problem before letting it cool off, refilling the tank and limping the last mile home?

Yep, happened to me in November (around 55k). See below too. It's the same hose for some other models.

PSA for high mileage 335's, check your coolant hoses... https://f30.bimmerpost.com/forums/sh....php?t=1547622

Same thing happened to me. Mine busted at 75k miles. Part# 17128570061 and costs less than $50 to replace.
