Help - Acceleration Problem in 3rd/4th Gear

I have a '99 9-3 manual with 94,000 miles on it. Yesterday after driving for 10 min, I shifted from 3rd to 4th, car seemed fine, then when I stepped on the gas (fairy hard)it started to hesitate and not accelerate. When I took my foot of the gas then slowly stepped on the accelerator, it seemed to drive normal. While this was happening it seemed like the car could not accelerate, RPMs stayed the same, no stalling. Also, no check engine lights or anything. It happened again today after driving for 10-15 min. It seems like the car hesitates for a few minutes while I am accelerating (in 4th gear). The weird thing is that the car seems to have a momentary issue with acceleration and then seems to drive fine (in all gears 1-5).
It has had all major service done to this point - spark plugs, etc changed at 90K. It has had the DI Cassette replace at 60K, in addition to serpentine belt, idler pulley, water pump and thermostat. Any ideas on this would be helpful. Thanks!
