update

I heard from the dealer this afternoon. The dealers senior tech worked on the car all day, exchanged emails and talked to toyota on the phone, and after 8 hours had absolutely NO idea what is wrong with my car!

We went over a multiple question survery that asked all about the incident and everything that lead up to it. Temperature of the air outside, time of day, type of road (level, going up a hill, etc..) you name it and I answered it.

Final word is that they are going to have the car all weekend and probably most of next week - is what I was told. I mentioned norb's problem and how it turned out to be two dc to dc converters. The tech was appreciative to hear this as they have not had ANY TCH's come back at this dealer yet. I guess every little bit helps. I've got a bad feeling this is going to take a long time to diagnose like Norb... AGH! I'm on my way to the dealer now to pick up a rental.
