04 2.4 Intermittent juddering when accelerating - Robina

There is an intermittent fault with my 04 reg 2.4 Auto Honda Accord (85000 miles) which affects the power upon accelerating. It judders a few times then settles down. This only occurs on light throttle at low speeds, it like a misfire or a flat spot on acceleration. It tends to happen when the engine is warm and accelerating between 20 and 40 mph and is more noticeable in the rain.

I have read similar stories in the forum - but on diesel. Anyone have experience this and have a solution. The Honda garage will investigate but I have no reliable method of reproducing the issue.
