Drivetrain malfunction

No CEL - 2nd time it's gone off since the spark plugs changed like 500 mils ago.

But, both times after the car sat a bit - the Notification went off.
I had the same thing happen the last time the plugs were changed but this resulted in a CEL (by a different shop) and one of the plugs was very fouled - running real rich - replaced the coil and plug and 30K later - no problem.

Thoughts?

Bad coil or plug again perhaps?

Was the Waste gate Actuator that threw the message - getting it fixed today - $1100 out the door.
