    I HAD TO REPLACE MY IGNITION COIL. IT IS WAS ACTUALLY SIMPLE TO DO BUT THE DEALERSHIP WAS GOING TO CHARGE A ARM AND LEG TO REPAIR. I ORDERED A NEW IGNITION COIL AND REPLACED IT MYSELF. IT IS AS SIMPLE AS REPLACING A SPARK PLUG.

    Same problem keep getting misfire codes from different coils. I have replaced the coils and still get misfire codes. I am now getting a P0420 Catalytic Converter code.

    Lost power found a bad coil and replaced it. Problem happened again soon after. Would reccomend replacing all coils and plugs when one went bad.
