    I have had the same thing happen intermittently. It comes and goes for seemingly no reason, but doesn't appear to be causing any problems. If you do some internet searches there are many cases of it and differing opinions on the cause. I wouldn't worry about it too much, I haven't heard one bad thing about the 2TR-fe yet. Time will tell...

    Cool thanks, thought maybe the spark plugs might be the problem.
