Maybe it could have something to due with new fuel blends for summer in the Northeast? Again, I have to check with the dealer. Replies to this message: hendjaz (Jun 22, 2006 10:27 pm)

You can feel the engine come to rest with the electrical motor taking over before its time to take off again. Very nice imho. Always look forward to that liftoff again after a stop. Very smooth, quiet and very fast.
