SR5 shudder question

[palooka23]

I have read the thread regarding shudder but it would seem that all the posts listed are 4x4.
The condition is described very similarly; a "rumble strip" feeling when going from a stop or slow speed. Cannot reproduce at will....very random. I feel this will result in a "cannot reproduce" at the dealer.
Right now not a big deal, but I fear a problem later.

Has anyone had the same and successfully diagnosed this problem?

Thanks in advance.

I had a strange thing happen to my 2010 TE today. The vehicle was warm and I pulled out in traffic and got on it after filling the tank from being half full. I have the CAI installed. I was on the gas for maybe 45 sec then had to slow to pull into a parking lot. As I slowed the engine started running rough and surprised me. I came to a stop and the engine was running rough and making the vehicle shake. I started rolling again and stopped and the engine smoothed out. No Engine lights came on. After that it ran smooth. Acted like water in the fuel possibly. Your post sounded similar to this. I hope it doesnt do it again.
