Might be throttle body actuator performance related which causes engine to enter limp mode. When you reset the ECU it clears all the DTCs (current, pending, and history), so it would appear to be completely free of faults when you bring it to a shop. Definitely need those trouble codes to continue with troubleshooting.

I have a similar issue, there is no response when I push the gas paddle. Like a delay. There eis no acceleration for like a god 5 seconds. Sometime it will stall.
