Sometimes when I'm pulling away there is what seems like a misfire for a couple of seconds. It usually pulls as normal then misfires for between 1-5 seconds (varying), then picks up and carries on as normal.

It's been doing it for about a year now and does it a lot more often than when it first started. Since it started doing this I have changed:

MAF
ICV
ECT
Crank Sensor

These have all been suggested to me but none has worked.

I don't have K&N or anything just standard filter. I've also cleaned out throttle body a fair bit.

I've tried the search but haven't found a definate fix. So any help would be appreciated, unless it involves petrol and matches.

I'd also prefer not to sell it.

Thanks

checked spark plugs? DIS packs are not uncommon on these, although happens more on the z12xe than on the x. i would most likely say dis.

I have now replaced DIS pack....

And problem is still there.

Really don't know what to do now. I'm not sure about going to vauxhall cos it's 85 quid an hour and it may just be guesses from them. I've already spent 270ish on the other stuff I mentioned. I love the car and want to keep hold of it for about another 2 years but to put up with it for that long I need this fixing.
