Description of the problem	My 2005 toyota avalon with the 2gr-fe v6 engine revs high, even when it's warmed up. In traffic, many times it revs high and lunges forward. Several times i braked hard to avoid read ending the car in front of me. This has been ongoing since i bought the car in 2005 as i am the original owner. I've taken it in to toyota service and the mechanics found nothing. Once i showed them a technical service bulletin from toyota which stated the exhaust manifold, oxygen sensors needed replacement and the ecm needed to be reprogrammed. It worked for a year (2007) then back to the same problem, high revving of the engine, hard shifting and lunging forward or reverse. The latest incident was today, 12/7/09 where i almost hit a pedestrian since the car revved high and lunged into the crosswalk. I had to press the brakes hard to prevent hitting the pedestrian.
