I think that this is a GDI engine, and if it is, carbon build-up in the throttle body and inlet tract (which these engines are prone to) is a likely cause. There are products which you can squirt into the inlet tract while the engine is running which are supposed to help shift carbon. It would be a cheap thing to try and harmless if done properly, and besides being cheaper also far easier than a top-end engine strip-down which is the traditional way to clean carbon deposits from an engine.

Hope this helps.
