a little assistance
#7
My car has been showing the VSC/TSC lights. I just had my spark plugs changed less than 1000 miles ago....and I had my codes pulled at Autozone, and it was reading a cylinder 5 misfire. Knowing my spark plugs were fine, I went to the next culprit, the coil pack. I bought from Sewell on a leap of faith, and since I didnt know how to change it, I went to a dealership just hoping they'd install it with just labor
well...I went to have it checked out today they tried to tell me that I needed new spark plugs and new 02 sensors....I said no thanks and left. So I've been on this site looking at how to change out the coil pack myself took me about 30 mins (and a lost stupid socket under my engine) and she's golden
no codes, no nothing...just happy

Had a coil pack go out on my last car (VW Passat.) My mechanic replaced it and when I picked up the car, it started up fine but almost immediately misfired and started running rough. The coil packs went out again. Turns out there was a frayed wire that was shorting out on the frame. Just something to think about. How much are coil packs for our cars?
