the best solution is to just go to ur dealership and get ur crank end play measured. costs about $35. Its worth it. i went and got mine checked...turned out it was out of spec. caught it in time though. didnt ruin my block. one of the first signs is that ur crank sensor will go bad. then ur car wont start.

I just got my crank end play checked the other day, and it's out of spec, but my car runs fine at the moment. I'm curious to know exactly what you did since you caught yours in time. Did you just replace the thrust bearings or what? Thanks!!
