Valve Seals Replaced at 63,000 mi

Just got my '08 4.8 back after 2 weeks at the dealer. Complete valve seal replacement at only 63k miles. Had to take the engine out of the car! The bright side is that BMW covered 85% of the est. $5500 cost. Bad new is that his happened in the first place. I was told it is common for this V8 engine. I had a 2015 X3 3.5 for a loaner that I got pretty used to but happy to have my car back. Anyone else run into this .
