Possible lamda (oxygen) or MAF (mass air flow) sensor.

Have you just changed your oil?
if so it might be the wrong type for your car, please check most of these cars
require half or full synthetic oil this could be your problem.

Dont start changing bits randomly its expensive, i had a misfire problem and everyone on Scoobynet was great but i would have bought every part under the sun, Take it to a specialist, i use Prosport in Stockport who are great, they will put a computer on and tell you exactly what it is, in my case a duff lamda sensor

0161 432 9999 is the number
