I'm not exactly sure why, but this made me laugh. Work has been very stressful for me lately...

Default Do you mean the throttle "buzz"? If so it's still doing it but not 100% of the time I think....
It was doing it this evening coming home from dinner out. Also on the way over to dinner the car went into limp and the EPC light came on... grrrrrr. Then I pull into a parking lot, shut it down for a 20 seconds or so and started again only to have it sputter or "pop almost and set off the check engine light!!! UUUrrrGGrrrGGGRRrrrrr!!!!!!!!11!!!!!!!!111one!111! !!!!!

Anyway I have yet to Vag it, I guess I could go out and do it...
