Always warm up my engine before pushing it, oil changes every 6-8k miles, and always keep it topped off. It can happen to anyone.
So, your engine had bearings changed twice? Bearing knock both times, or did it blew? Curious about a bit more info if possible mate.

Thanks
Ticking the first time. No ticking the second time. The engine just failed one day when I was driving in traffic.
