Has it always done this?

Has it done this since you bought the car? Or have you had some work done to it and it started after that? Look on the performance board and search for "glow". You'll find a thread from Terry last November where he had the same problem after replacing the head gasket. It turned out that the timing chain was one tooth out causing the valve timing to be off. Even if you haven't had the head off, it's vaguely possible that the chain, sprockets or tensioner are worn and that the chain has jumped a tooth. If that turns out to be the case, get it fixed immediately and consider yourself lucky to get such a warning. They often seem to go with very little warning.
I suppose we can discount the possibility of retarded ignition timing on a car with DI? ... or not?
