mine does the same and my light came on. i went to autozone for them to read and got a diagnostic code of p1553, though when i turned the car back on, the code was cleared.
i'm taking it to the dealership tomorrow, will they be able to review the history of codes even though the light is not on anymore?

Any luck getting this resolved?
I have the same issue in my 550 except no warning lights or anything... car seems to run well otherwise.
Hasn't effected performance, cold starts are OK too. Just happens when I come to a rolling stop with the car in drive. Goes away if A/C is turned on.
It's really just a minor annoyance at this point...
