Flashing CEL

Recently drove RX8 and CEL flashed for about 10 seconds and then went away. Plugs and wires replaced about 20K ago. What gives?

Never mind. Researched more thoroughly and I think that the problem may lie with the coils (that have never been replaced) How much is the dealer charging for coils? Here goes more $$.

Misfire... yeah!

Dealer cost for coils last time I check was like 300 for a set. I said f-it and got the BHR ones, better spark, last twice as long and only a small bit more money.

I bought four coils from a dealer for about $125.....and they are easy to install....BHR are real good but if money is a problem...these have a good warranty...
