Ok folks,
bit stumped here Wednesday on way to work sitting at traffic lights engine decided to shut down without any warning at all. restarted ok but engine was surging approx across a 500rpm range above and below the idle speed (750 rpm). managed to get to work ok, and thought nothing of it.
yesterday (Friday 20/12/13) similar thing happened again except this time I was moving at approx 40-50 kmph in traffic - managed to arm strong the steering to turn into the shopping centre carpark driveway (made even harder due to xmas shopping by others) started up ok without the surging idle.
approx 170,000 on the clock fuel filters have been replaced no water warning lights, no engine check lights or error codes on the OBD2 scan gauge installed
any info greatly appreciated will be heading to mr Toyota for a computer hook up but never less puzzled by what is happening. from a safety side of things I rather this didn't happen in first place
