Could be a number of things, when were the spark plugs changed? when was the last service? possable coil pack fault etc.

thanks for replying the plugs were done about 2 months ago along with service iol filled just below max mark ive checked the coil packs no visible signs of cracks or wear ive taken off the bleed valve and she is running 12psi and fine in every gear could it be the bleed valve causing the fault. Cheers
