This is very common on all 5 series e39 models. This problem is the result of severe pot hole impacts and worn shocks absorbers, which allow the vehicle to bottom out. The weight of the vehicle impacting the front upper shock mount will typically bend the upper mounts as well as the tower itself. You can visually see the damage by looking at the top of the mount which will appear bulged outward.

The BMP shock tower reinforcement plate kit includes two 3/16" steel reinforcement rings, six 3/16" heavy duty washers, and six extended length mounting studs. The plate fits between the upper shock mount and the vehicles shock tower. The 3 (per side) heavy duty washers fit on top. The combination will add 3/8" of solid steel to help prevent future damage.
