Had the same problem with my old F10 as well as new one. It was as easy as wrapping the fuel lines with heat shield tape and the problem went away. I had drive train malfunction along with transmission failure happened with my new F10 at only 44 MILES. Wrapped the fuel lines with the tape and it has been fine so far. The fuel lines are located near the turbos therefore the excess heat heats the fuel lines and fuel eventually begins to evaporate and at that point its basically hot air in the fuel lines. Hope everything works out.
