check the coil pack, does it miss fire when driving at all. or just when you stop or slow down and take a corner?

Try cleaning out throttle body. May be something simple like that.

I can't really think what it could be but it's definitely not an electrical fault.
Checked oil level?

What did you use to read the fault codes? As my local garages one didnt come up with any. Then when I took it to an ECU specilist it came up straight away
