Anyways, it did something strange, that has actually happened once or twice before and not that I'm freaking out about it or anything, but when it does happen it is quite unnerving. A real "WTF" moment. I was cruising down the highway, normal rpms 6th gear and suddenly the engine acts as if it is missfiring and starts shuddering and what not. Almost feels as if the transmission is skipping or like the engine was fed too much fuel and the engine is choaking or sputtering. It lasts a second or two and goes away. No CEL.
Like I said it has happened once before, but this time I noticed it happened when I was steady on the highway and then released my foot off the gas. It happening when I released my foot off the gas is what has me thinking maybe it was a fuel issue??? But thats just a guess. I can't remember what I was doing exactly when it happened the previous time, except that was cruising on the highway.
I will also say that both times I had probably only been in the car 2 - 5 minutes so it may not have been fully warm.
Anyone else notice this? I wonder if there would be any codes it left behind that I could view?

Use your trifecta code scanner. I know when I got my dyno done, no CEL popped up, but there were codes in the system dealing with traction control. I'd guess if there was a code, the code reader should pick it up.
