Default Engine failure bug?

I just had a strange bug in Spit2a on ATAG patch server, took off Manston flew south and climbed to 12,000 feet, everything good, watched temps & rpm all the way, then the engine failure effect kicked in - but with no damage as I have my engine info window display damage. rpms and temps were still good, gear/flaps were up, (unless my cockpit indicators were faulty as there is no external view) but the screen is shaking madly and horrible grinding metal noise. Tried cycling mixture, no effect - slightly lower rpms on lean. I recorded a short track to review, but guess what? in the track there was no shaking, no grinding metal, and steady(ish) needles for rpm/temps. mind you the track record is still not getting the engine right so I don't know.

Anyone else had this one? I think that's twice for me, the first time I thought I'd cooked the engine but now I'm pretty sure this is a bug.

Regards, Sam.
