A scan probably wont show up a missfire.

Some good old mechanics would be the best option for this one.

Ive had a dodgy coilpack on a AGU before....well, enough to give it a misfire under boost, Me and Nick spent most the day trying to work it out why it was missing under boost and eventually found the coils to be issue.  I guess 10+ years and they eventaully wear out.
