service engine light, Auto Zone checked, cld be number of things, most EGR but know someone who had same problems, replaced many things having to do with EGR, ended up being coil pack? will have someone ck it out and get a manual
whenever i accelerate my truck sounds like it has a bad cold and can't stop coughing, it just recently started doing it... now my check engine light came on... i took it by auto zone so they could read the computer and they said cylinder #5 was misfiring and i needed a coil pack or coil plug?? (not sure which one), and that my plugs needed changing. I have only had the truck about 3 months but i don't have a warranty... does anyone have any idea how much this would cost to fix or have any suggestions??? thank you
This is the second time in about 4 months that I have had to have a coil package replaced on one of the cylinders. 1 coil package per cylinder number 3 was replaced in March, number 4 replaced in August. $ 374.00 per replacement. No explanation except that they do occasionally burn out however should last over 100,000 miles. With 8 cylinders this adds up to potentially $3,000. Not a cheap fix. Service tech could not say what or if they were covered under any warranty, she indicated these have gone out on vehicles with less mileage.
