This is the bluetooth transmitter I use.

It's a cheap-o but so far it has worked for me for the last several years. Combined with the $5 for the Torque Pro app it's the best $26 I've ever spent on all my vehicles...and my wife's, parent's, and sister's vehicles. Someone in my family has a CEL they call me.

I have a bluetooth obd2 module and the torque app. It's not showing a misfire on any cylinder. Just the lean bank one which is probably a result of the vibration shaking the flange going to the manifold loose.

Also negative on vacuum leaks.

Are you rlooking for the misfires in the mode$6 test or on a PID? Because the misfires don't show up in the PIDs. At the main menu on the Torque app hit the "Test Result" button and let it complete the scan while running at temp with over half a tank of gas. The misfire results will be towards the bottom.

Threads not going anywhere. I can only explain that I have a scanner and know how to use it so many ways.

Also you didn't answer are you looking for the misfires in the test results or on a pid? Did you find them?

Why would I be looking at the pid? I didn't find them because there aren't any.

I'm just trying to help you man. If you have a misfire, which is usually the case with a vibration you HAVE to look at the mode$6 test or you will not see the misfire. You never said you were looking at that data or just the misfire pid which doesn't work with our trucks or just the p0353 code.
