Daily intermittent sometimes rhythmic engine shudder

I believed I had solved this issue after a new alternator replacement (for a different reason) however I'm still having an unusual load or engine issue. Happens daily but not constantly. It happens while in park, it happens in neutral and it's worse in drive, stopped with brakes applied. Sometimes the engine runs perfectly smooth and quiet and sometimes it's quite rough and gets worse with each added electrical load introduced such as windscreen heater, rear screen heater, seat heaters, suspension compressor, AC compressor engagement, headlamps, steering gear usage, etc. The more added, the worse it gets, enough so to be felt by all occupants, rattles interior bits and plastics, etc and can be heard as a rumble in the exhaust. Sometimes it's rhythmic and can be timed to come and go every 5 seconds for minutes at a time and I've monitored this timing every time it has occurred and the tach needle rises and falls in time with it...touch the throttle and it goes away, release the throttle and it returns. Three main dealers have not been able to solve this in over 2 years of trying.

Anyone have thoughts?
