Misfire when idling 850 1996

How come i almost always get the lambda light (check engine light?)to come on when standing still with the engine running. Normally this happens at a red light or similar situation.

Fault codes are: 451,452,453,454,455 (Misfire on cylinder #1,2,3,4,5)

543 (Misfire on at least one cylinder)

Rotor, plugs etc. has been changed. ECU connectors cleaned. The dealer is stumped apparently...and so am I.

The code always clears so i assume this is not a major problem. I have been running the car about 50000km without any trouble.

I would really like it fixed anyway since i disregard the light when it comes on and will not be able to realise i have a major problem if it occurs. Another issue would be when i want to sell it.

I'd sure appreciate any suggestions.
