Have you had it scanned or have access to handheld tuner to read the error codes?

It must be a very cheap code reader. I would see if they have a different one or go to another free scan place. Sears was doing free scans and the use a good reader generally and they will be able to tell you which coil is bad. E? sounds like a fault in the cheap code reader.

I agree with above most good readers will tell you which coil is bad.

How did you do that with your question mark ? (¿)

Install your key upside down?

Or is that a Mac thing ?
