last wk a mechanic tested the coil ,1st coil tested higher than others.an everything sparked an said it needed replacing,brought it,replaced it with new 1 an problem still there.

about a month ago i had CAS replaced,code 46 flashing. could sumthing be goin wrong with that to cause such a problem? maybe sumthing loose or not tightened properly?

i know the feeling, had similar probs recently myself, turned out to be DFI and coil.
your ignition system is all connected, from the CAS, DFI Module, coils, leads to spark plugs. sometimes your car will flash a code and tell you one thing but you'll find out its a fault with one of the others. The plugs and leads are the cheapest place to start replacing things. coils are about $50 each from repco, and DFI about $250? Coils can even test ok with a multimeter and still fail under load, thats what mine did, and it gave me code 47. also check your leads for any deep rub marks in the insulation, which will cause a miss, and all the connections to all these components.
