Anybody with a solution to this problem? I have the same issue with my car. I find that it is worse when the AC is on.

Check the fuel pressure under these conditions, use a gage with a long hose taped to the w/s. If ok this could be caused by a std misfire condition , a wire, a coil, lean mixture from a weak o2 sensor. Forget the premium waste of money. A full scan may point to the problem more readily than guess work, but if it is a misfire some info would show, fuel trims for example. 41-47psi is the normal fp. BTW in the future start a new thread, this one is too old.
