Is it a 330d? I used to have a pre-LCI 330d that did this. Seems to be bad design and if you push it in a self-tapping screw will hold it in place.

Mine did the same and split!
I got one cheap from dealer
It's called a "rubber boot" and the part number is 13717795284
£21.60 Inc vat.
They get hold and cold and then go brittle and split, the new rubber boot is slightly modified to the ones fitted in the factory

Yeah, I keep all my receipts for all the parts I buy, and looked it up and defo £21.60 Inc VAT.
I got mine from Stratstone in derby, should be around the same I'd assume at other dealers!
For once they're cheaper! Lol.
Good luck!
