You say 5 speed, I assume as in standard, therefore not a slipping tranny with the symptoms you describe. If you stepped on the gas, it would slip more. We had the exact same thing with our '01 5 speed wagon. Coincidently, we had quite a few things replaced around that time and every time it would go away for a few days and then come back. Crank position sensor, air filter, new battery, DI under warranty, cleaned the throttle body and then we changed gas brands and it completely went away. I suspect that some companies are putting too much ethanol mix in and some of these cars don't like it. Our '99 5 speed sedan couldn't care less what gas it drinks but it also doesn't feel as finely tuned. I only use regular gas myself but try a high grade no-ethanol gas for a couple of tanks to see if that helps narrow it down.
