They said the rubber lines are very bad and deteriorate because of the heat and age and start to get hair line splits in them that could be anywhere, some you can't even see so they just do it all and it fixes the problem, now this is the non M versions he was talking about but it could be something similar.
I'm hearing this more and more.
