I went to dealer to check misfire.
They recommend new pcm

No check engine light on
Thanks

You might try moving the suspect injector to another cylinder and see if the mis goes with it. You may have bad ignition coil on that cylinder which can also be swapped with another one to see if the issue moves.

How many miles on the D? Don
