All occurrences similar: 1)engine is warm after a period of driving; 2) car decelerating approaching stop sign, traffic light, or in stop-and-go traffic; 3) a barely audible "click" is heard and the engine rpm begins to rev up making braking difficult and giving a clue that something is amiss. When this point is reached key was turned off or idle selected to see how high the rpm would rev; 4800 is the highest noted. This is a random event as the car has over 10000 miles with 7 occurrences.
