There's no proof that ethanol has anything to do with chirps, only speculation, but I'm searching for any help. It seems that once it starts, nothing including the TSB is a permanent fix including (I think) switching gas brands.

Meanwhile, I'm logging ECU spark retard with defined alarms since a popular theory is that chirps may predict DI failure precipitated by detonation shown in ECU logs as ignition retard. All anecdotal at this point, though.
