crappppp i saw this
AP2 (2004-2009)
Problem: Gear lever pops out of 2nd, 4th or 6th gear
Solution: Replace the countershaft 1st gear and the 2nd gear set. Service Bulletin
Problem: CEL P1172 and/or P2A00 (MY06+)
Solution: Go to the dealer to update the ECM/PMC PGM-FI software. Replace the air/fuel sensor. Service Bulletin
but i didnt see where that cel was just for 06 up because at the top it says 04+
i guess what i really need to know is in getting to a code reader as long as i dont go over 3 or 4 k i should be alright eh? car has oil runs fine. went 500 miles last weekend...now all of a sudden has a cel after she sat in some traffic, i came home, she sat a lil while, started her up and bam my first cel...weeeeee

Since the misfire...
I've had valve adjustment (engine was also checked for damage). Changed pcv valve, spark plug change on misfire cyl. And moved coil around.
I only get a CEL on idle or coasting to a stop.
Im starting to think vacuum leak.
