i had the same problem for a while but mine was throwing up a knock sensor code... after i replaced the knock sensor i started to fill it up with premium gas... no problem since... you can try a little octane boost by the directions on the bottle... but you should do a tune up first. mine had a recent tune up when it happened. if that doesn't get the problem straight, then let it warm up to normal temp first then try to run it.
