the 50:1 referred to the liklihood that for every 9-5 DI that goes 192k miles, 50 failed by 25k
granted, not to many 9-5's have gone 192k yet, so that 50:1 may come down to 20:1
In a reasonable world, this part should have a median lifespan of at least 75k miles.
In an ideal world, when it does start to fail, it gives you some warning.
Mine failed at 25k, with no warning, stranding car on side of Interstate.
