Fuel injection amount learning process
To keep exhaust emissions and engine noise low, the engine
very occasionally performs a learning process for the fuel
injection amount.
The engine sounds slightly different from usual while the
learning process is taking place. The change in the engine
sound does not indicate a fault.
