I've had the same issue...stop light, rpm's dip down, a little engine shutter. I have about 11,000 mile on my 08 Sahara Unlimited 6 speed and its happened 3 or 4 times. Your right about the dealer, if they can't recreate the problem, there is no problem.

I get the same thing every once in a while - sitting at a light and it feels rough and almost like it is going to cut out - and I have the urge to give it a little gas. I have 33K miles on my 07 X.
