I'm thinking that a second relay might prove to be the best "tool" in the box for us 3.2 guys.

Nice info Steve, thanks for the link.
I had an intermittent "buck" or "stutter" at part-throttle at low-mid rpms, out of the blue while running right along on the highway.
Now, after posting that the issue hadn't returned since replacing the relay... it's come back more as a sudden loss of power followed by a return to normal shortly thereafter. Guess you're supposed to keep a block of wood to knock on next to the PC when typing stuff like that.

Realize this is a VERY old post but i am having the same issue as 84_Carrera. Any luck figuring out what this was at the time? I ordered a new Relay today but it sounds like that didn't solve the problem.
