Thread: Flashing check engine light Discovery 3S 4.0 V6

My car is giving me misfires mostly on one cylinder at idle (although sometimes another cylinder on that bank), and car is negatively trimming that bank also. I have literally checked everything, compression, leak down test, fuel pressure test, replaced injectors, replaced plugs, checked for vacuum leaks. Even taken off valve covers and made sure timing is correct. I can not figure out the issue. Now I am thinking maybe O2 sensor on that bank, or maybe the engine control module? Unplugging O2 sensor does not seem to have any effect however. Any information on how you (hopefully) rectified your problem would be greatly appreciated, thank you.

You need the DTC codes otherwise anything else is a guess.

Codes are always the same no matter what I do, p0304 (sometimes p0306) p0300, p0316, and sometimes p0405, although thats and egr code and doesn't seem to always show up. Moving around coils, moving plugs, changing plugs, etc have all resulted in exact same performance. Oddly enough I drove the car this morning, fuel trim on the bank with the misfire was a little less negative, but still a misfire persisted. I am losing it over here trying to track this down.
