Isn't the root cause the plastic guides though - age...
It seems like forever. When I removed mind, the guides were not shot but the plastic was brittle
Also keep in mind the quality of oil and frequency of oil changes highly effects the guides going brittle and breaking. My brother's M62 in his 540 6-speed has 240K on original guides. He always does his oil changes between 4-5K miles with Motul Synthetic.
