Thanks metroschultz.
That is exactly what I have been seeing with the SGII. I had not heard it was a Toyota thing, that make sense. I had run into a few others having the same issue, they thought it was maybe something wrong with the SGII. Your explanation fits a LOT better for what I have read and seen.

That issue and the lag (lost data) as SGII reconnects to my ECU after the engine is off, is why I ordered the MPGuino.
Sounds like it is going to work perfect.

Don't get me wrong: I think SGII is an awesome tool and with its ease of install, I would definitely recommend it to anyone. I will be keeping the SGII pluged in also.
