Have 34K miles on D/A and was wondering whether there is an easy way to look at the blades before the warranty expires at 36K. I want to make sure they are not eroded at the tips, as I understand happens when you pull heavy without having an EGT. KISS applies here.

I guess you are refering to the turbine and not the compressor wheel being eroded from heat. You would have to pull the turbo from the turbine housing to inspect the shaft. You should not have no problems considering that you run stock. By the way, the turbo is covered for 5 years or 100,000 along with the rest of the engine.
