I guess by the year your engine has hydraulic valve lifters, in which case it's a good bet that one or more of them is losing oil pressure occasionally. Is it ok when you bring the revs.up? Not uncommon on engines with a few miles on them. The first attempt at a cure is to use a flushing agent (e.g.Wynns, STP etc., there is one that specifically mentions hydraulic lifters) then change oil and filter. Failing this, it's down to replacing the offending (preferably all) the lifters. Not cheap!
