Not yet. I don't have a code scanner if in fact you need one
or know how to get the codes. In fact I don't even know if the dealer
checks for codes while the car is in for scheduled maintenance.

The car has stock plugs in it. NGK. They were replaced at 150K.

Bob, no problems when accelerating up hill. I've been trying to pay
more attention to what's going, looking for patterns I mean. It might be
occurring more when it's warmer out.
