I replace mine twice a year. I always take it off when the 5er is in for service. Fork Lifts/tractors used to move it around service bays always seem to destroy the disc. Beyond that concern, twice yearly renewal seems to work.
My original dealer had to replace a bunch of them, then they figured out that the cup on the fork they used to move them around was simply too deep. Cut about 1" off of it so the king pin bottomed out and, voila', no more broken lube plates!
