"We also have a member over in Germany that changes them regularly and his friend is one of the M engineers that travels around to the various dealership and see alot of M car, he stated it is a very common problem that can be prevented."

Any division who thinks rod bearings is a "maintenance issue" is crazy. This is unacceptable for a factory car. Replacing the bearings is not even the correct solution. Instead you should be opening up the clearance a bit.

A "very common" problem on this particular issue is a "very serious" problem in my book.
