What I don't know is the differential repair cost at the warning sign (whining sound) versus after failure. But, either way, warranty no longer applies, as I was told. I am keeping to the 5k oil changes meanwhile and playing the odds given the rate of failure is high enough to be notable but by no means universal. One theory suggests being sure to turn off any auto start/stop function to reduce added and useless load on each restart.
