interesting ABC problem, need help

my S600 has had the ABC pump replaced and lines at 67K miles, car has 69K miles 7 months after replaced parts. here is the problem, sometimes, twice so far, the car has blown the ABC dipstick off the ABC tank. first time just air and hissing, this time blew the top off into the hood, fluid went shooting out over the engine and onto the driveway. this only happens after I am driving a while, 45-50 minutes and when I put the car in park. any clues? I filled the tank up again and too low light went off, car raises up and down like normal, I am perplexed, any thoughts????
