I've searched - Please Help!

Hey, I've been having major hesitation problems with my car for a while now. It only has 87K km's on it. I thought maybe ignition coils, all have continuity though, but the stealership replaced one they felt was bad anyways - didn't help. Got a buddy to scan the engine, came back with a KS code. Bought a new KS off ebay and just put that in today. Still terrible, absolutely no improvement. I've also checked the PCV valve - got plenty of vacuum there so I just put it back on.

I don't know where to start now....has anybody done this and found something else solved their hesitation problem. From searching, I can only think possibly TB cleaning, or possibly a MAF sensor? Should I check my coils yet again?? I'm extremely disappointed with the car right now, I can't seem to solve the problem.

Reset the ECU for the new KS to start working. To check the coils all you do is disconnect them one at a time. If you take one out and the engine doesn't run differently, rough, then it's bad. Every one that makes the car run worse with it disconnected is a GOOD COIL. All these people saying I searched and all that bullshieat, stop you *****. It's damn easy to see that you didn't search cause if you did you would've seen the 50+ threads about the KS just from last week. This isn't aimed specifically at you dude, just your kind.
