@@Gonz209 yes it’s still sputtering and check engine light still on. I had cylinder 6 misfire, and plenum gasket codes. I’m currently pricing a 5.7 swap or custom built 3.6 at this point. I might pop the valve cover and check the rockers on 2,4,6 side
Mine just started doing this. Replaced spark plugs and coil plugs and check the compression also any leaks and the code still on. Also checked the fuel injectors theyre fine i think it might be the cylinder.... some of the valves might be bad.
Mine had a rough idle, sputtered when accelerating, check engine light on and flashing and would shake around 40mph+. Had code P0300 and p0302. I changed spark plugs and added sea foam for injectors, nothing. Changed 1 coil(guess which one P0302 is a hint) and back to normal.

Hey man. I have a 2017 dodge charger sxt with 109k miles on it and while i’m at a stop it’s jerks and shake a lot. I’m planning on changing the spark plugs and coils do you recommend that.
I would start with that, as you could see in my video the spark plug boot for one of my spark plugs was the issue, if you have the same issue as I had you should have a check engine light for misfire, and will find a small burn hole where spark is going to the engine block. Good luck, let me know what your issue was!
@@Gonz209 thanks bro. No bullshit literally after watching your video my check engine light came on. Went to get all the parts and tomorrow i’m doing the job.
Put the OBD2 reader on it and see what code you get, you never know it could be something different, go off of your check engine code. If it's a misfire on a cylinder it will tell you, focus on that cylinder for a bad spark plug, bad coil, or bad rubber boot.
Good luck, yeah mine was getting P0302 which is like you say cylinder #2, then I moved that coil and boot to cylinder #5, ran car for a day and faulted on PO305, telling me that coil and boot were the problem, removed coil and boot and found the small spark burn on boot, replaced that coil and boot with new one and that fixed my issue. My car has been good since I did this video. But misfire faults can also be bigger issues, low compression, bad injectors, manifold air leaks, and so on. I lucked out with it being something simple.
I'm not getting a check engine light. I am feeling my 2015 Slightly sputter/cough. I feel it mostly when on the expressway at high speeds when the trans switches gears. I went to a shop today. Was told my cylinder 4 is misfiring.
i know this is a late response but yes, my 2008 dodge charger v6 with 165k miles has this problem. my engine light is on and it detected a misfire in cylinder 4. it has been rough idling and it rattles a lot on a cold start. it also jerks when i go to accelerate. hopefully getting a brand new coil pack and new spark plugs fixes the issue. this is my first car and i just got it 2 weeks ago, and i’m 17 years old
@@extroxfps I have the same issue with my 2011 charger, if the RPM needle is bouncing a lot & the car feels like it’s shaking on a cold start most likely it’s the fuel injector in your cylinder 4
Mine has the same issue. Except I’ve changed my ignition coils and spark plugs yet it’s still doing it. Any clues as to why this is happening? I’m getting misfires on cylinder 4
Is it shaking while in idle, or just idling? Might want to do a compression test on all cylinders and see how #4 compares to the rest, there are actual cylinder pressure they should be but I can remember what is a good compression, good luck, let me know what fixed it, to stay learning.
I have the same issue. I changed the coils and spark plugs and still has a cylinder 2 misfire. I went to the dealership and they ran a diagnostic test and said it has a collapsed lifter. They want me to change all lifters and camshaft.. 4500
I picked up coil that comes with new boot at local Auto parts store it was close to $40 what i paid for it. That's if you have the same issue as i did! With spark escaping to ground out the side of rubber boot, good luck. Let me know what you find.
It was the one the OBD2 scanner told me it was when test running. If i recall i took the coil that was triggering bad, and put it in piston with easier access in case I needed to replace, as you know there are some coils harder to access under the intake.
I ended up buying a new coil that came with a new coil rubber boot. If you having same issue you can try just the rubber boot. Cause that's where the spark was escaping to ground

Well if you are capable of getting into removing spark plug coils and spark plugs so you can inspect them you might find the problem and save some money. The coil cost me less than $40, since you are messing with spark plugs might as well replace them too, specially if you have high mileage, good luck! Let me know what fixed it.
