Hello all

I am currently experiencing a misfire in cylinder 3 after swapping out the left turbo was originally thinking the turbo messed with it or that the battery getting low was messing with the engine computer.

Just swapped the battery to a new one , and swapped 3 and 4 coil packs see if it throws misfire in 4 and becomes that coilpack. I keep coming back to thinking it might be the fuel injector since I'm at 168k miles.
If any of you have any other Ideas or could tell me if the BOSCH 62842 worked nicely or if there is a cheaper option that works greatly.

The part info from rock that was matched with oem.

Not really enough info to go off of. Is it idling funky and smells like fuel out the exhaust? Could be a stuck open injector. Need more details on what it's exactly doing / maybe even a video would be easy to go off of.

When idling rpms dip and it shakes during the dip going between normal and low rpm shaking.

For sound it sounds little rough and after heating up and really doing the shaking it sounds like it is starting to stall out and when. It's lighter just slightly rougher

No other stand out issues like no smell or any of that

When my injector was hung open, it threw a code for the cylinder, idled extremely rough and wreaked of gas. Also was a lot of smoke coming out exhaust. If yours is just missing a little bit you might want to throw some lucas injector cleaner in the tank and see if that helps.

Just tried the Lucas injector cleaner used seafoam injecotr stuff before turbo replacement but figured I can try that as a why not attempt.

I havent tried compression test as I dont have the tool to do so will grab one if it keeps up after the injector cleaner and post results back here.

Again everyone thank you for the assistance.

My 2010PP SHO has some post WOT throttle popping. Throws a P0420 every couple months when driven hard. Excess fuel from an intermittently hung injector on bank 1 is my suspicion. Will try Lucas first before replacing some injectors. May be my Cyl 5. Only seems to act up when pushed hard. Unburnt fuel due to excess fuel and sticking at higher RPM and inj cycling rates. Idles and drives around town fine though.
