    Hi all,
    Can anyone throw their thoughts in on what my problem may be.

    My VX has been giving me a lot of greif lately, between trouble starting it to ruff idle, to just driving like rubbish in general at the moment.
    I took her into the mechanic and they replaced the crank angle sensor (seemed to fix the problem till the mechanic called and said that the key was stuck and then had to pay for a whole new ignition barrel and key).
    Drove good did a radiator flush with fresh coolant.
    Then a few days later it started idling ruff as the car slowed at lights and while waiting.
    Next day it also started idling super ruff when accelerating.
    Changed out coil pack, ignition module and leads. Plugs where fine.
    Car is still sounding like it's misfiring but I'm getting spark.
    Mechanic says maybe compression problem or fuel injectors.
    I can't keep throwing endless money around so would love any ideas you fine folks might have as to what to try next.
