KLOS - not normally. The only 'advance warning' you might get is an abnormal reading on one of the instruments such as falling oil pressure, rising oil temperature, increasing vibration, abnormal EGT. etc. Mechanical failure is normally very sudden and unexpected!

The modern engine monitoring systems will be telling parameters to base engineers who may be able to 'foresee' a problem.
