this is my only car. And by my car i mean our family. It is used to drive my kid around everyday. All those things you are saying are not practicle or I would not hesitate:(I mean if ur really worried you have a few options.
1. Extend your warranty and send it.
2. Drop the oil pan pull off your rod bearing caps and inspect the bearing. Start with the cylinder closest to the firewall if any is going to fail it's gonna be one of the ones at the back. You don't have to take off all of them just the last 2 on both banks should give you a good feel for whats happening...
3. Listen for rod knock, if the engines clean you're good. Add ceratec for the time being.
4. Plan to pull the motor and rebuild it. Start buying up the components then set a cut off date, then just pull it, sleeve it, rods, headstuds, whipple it then send it.
Bro ive learned over the years if it's something keeping you up at night just handle it.
No point in worrying. Or denying whats happening. The cars giving you a warning that somethings coming make a plan then make an executive decision and fix it preemptively. If it turns out the motor was fine all along now you have a built motor so u can really flog it.
In a fight against a bully its always best to throw the first punch you might win, you might lose but at least you get the ball rolling...
