please help.

i keep getting a misfire on cycliner three and don't know what to do next.

i have changed all my spark plugs less than 2000 miles ago. i have replaced the coil for cylinder 3.

still getting the same fault code.

what would the next step be?? injector??

your help is much appreciated.

Injector, more then likely could also be build up.

Having same the issue, I think it's my rear o2 sensor since I'm getting a lambda probe trim code.

I had the same problem, I changed the injector from 2 to 3 and the misfire moved. Try that, if the misfire moves that means the injector is bad. Also make sure you have the decoupling element of the injector 3, that was my issue as well

The correct procedure is to take the car to a shop and have the injector coded, between 60 to 90, I didn't do it on mine, yet. Some people say you should, some other are saying that the car will adapt no problem
