Message near the back of the engine, esp around cylinders #5 and #6, which get the hottest and seem to be choked a bit for coolant.

By far, your best shot at longevity will come from regular oil changes with a good synthetic, which prevents coking. Also, don't run your car hard after a cold start until the oil pressure has dropped to normal range, which will be AFTER the engine has reached operating temp. Finally, don't boost your turbos for the last five minutes or so of your drive.
