For future reference when people are searching threads, thought I'd share what i now know/suspect to be my early symptoms of two bad DI's prior to meltdown/failure:
1. Developed detonation/pinging under acceleration despite new NGK plugs
2. Car would idle fine, but with a slight pause, like a heart murmurr "rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr r rrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr" accompanied by a small drop in idle speed
3. Car would run rough for a second when it first started cold, a quick stumble then normal - did this occasionally
4. Car would miss occasionally or run rough, worse with AC
5. Car was occasionally sluggish, then would return to normala
Feel free to add your experiences...
