It's been my experience that sometimes you get a warning, but often not.

1999 E300td bearings got bad at 145,000 miles allowing the armature to move back and forth and rub (squeak) the pulley against the body of the alternator. Unfortunately it happened on the other coast from home and due to tight scheduling it became a dealer replacement. $$$$
Starter, touch wood is original and fine.
