This was used, but is sooo expensive

Any advice would be appreciated!!

Swap a coil pack from cyl 5 and see if the misfire follows the coilpack

I usually tell people to change plugs before anything else..

Plugs then coil then fuel injector..

If you change the plugs go with the Bosch double platinums DO NOT GAP THEM.. Anything else won't last very long..
