Ses..........

I have a 00 SE 5spd and last night the SES light came on.

Today I went down to my work and checked it out with the scanner: Manufacturer ignition system or misfire. I had this same code twice, which I assume means I've misfired twice. The scanner does not tell me which cylinder it is so I can't even replace that coil to see if it stops.

What would you guys do?

Thanks,

DF

I can't remember the P0#### but it was manufacturer ignition system or misfire.

I put in Iridium plugs not more than 10k ago so I'm sure that they are fine. Where did you find that scanner? My work (autozone) only has the crappy one for free use. I don't want to have to pay 150 just to have them tell me what cylinder is misfiring.
