Had the dealer scan the engine, no error / fault codes found. They could not reproduce. Options are to replace Fuel Pump, but no guarantee that will fix this problem.

Looking for any advice on how to better diagnose this symptom before I go through the expense of swapping parts to see what will resolve.
