so i have been getting a code 10702 lately, the stealer-ship told me i have a miss fire in cylindar 3 as well. now today the 10702 code popped up. (cylindar 2 if im not mistaken)

so clearly it looks like a need to replace my plugs, but the previous ownder had them swapped out at 44K miles .. which is about 9k miles on the new plugs. why would i need to change them again?!?! is this normal since im running procede? or is this an indication that something else may be going on?

coil packs

[roberts5831]

do u think i should swap the coil packs around and see if the problem goes to that cylindar? like move #2 to #6 or something? or is that just dumb?

Swap coils around and see if the misfire follows. If not then try replacing the plugs.

Don't dismiss the possibility that the plugs were not changed despite what the previous owner/dealership said. Personally, i'd do that first.

Yes, my car showed the plugs were replaced in the CBS at 45k miles, but when I pulled them, they were definitely OLD plugs! Someone reset the CBS, but didn't do the work!

If the car is tuned, probably not a bad idea to do it every 15,000 to 20,000 miles. (24,000 to 32,000km)
