That is the sort of thing it is difficult to diagnose over the internet! Best to take it to either a dealer or an indy IMHO. Could be something really easy to fix by someone who can see, hear and touch it.

My neighbor's sporty was doing exactly that and it turned out to be the Camshaft Position Sensor. Check around somebody may know how to perform some tests yourself. If your not good with that kind of thing; you may want to bring it to the dealer. Good luck !!
