I get some whine (4 yrs, 25K miles) when the engine is hot after a long journey. I've given up worrying about noises on these cars and just enjoy it. If it goes bang then I'll get it fixed. Too many people IMHO (including me at first) take the car back for parts to be swapped before they fail and inevitably the workmanship is not as good as when the car was built, never mind what else might need taking apart to get to the part being swapped out. Lesson learned for me. On my next car, whatever goes bang gets replaced, if it makes a whine, it makes a whine.
