Default Slight hesitation?

My 2006 IS350 has developed what seems like a slight hesitation when taking off after a complete stop. It only lasts about a second or two, but it didn't use to do this. Does anyone have any idea what this might be? No warning lights are on or anything.

Try disconnecting your battery to reset the ECU.

Does this happen every single time or just occasionally? It sounds like it could have something to do with the carbon buildup issue.

I don't think carbon buildup is an issue with the 350...
