Connect some OBD reader with live data. You should easily chase the one that is missfiring... I think TOAF does not support the live data for KV6, but i am not sure.

I had that trouble on my previous car and everytime it was just a cable, not the coil. Also, check the spark plugs, maybe it's replacement time... :)

You say you have checked the plugs. Do you mean those important plug GAPS ??

I’ve been out in the car today since it started to misfire and it drove perfect until the temp reached its half way mark and it started to misfire again but as soon as I go over 2500/3000 revs it goes fine again this is baffling me hope somebody can help me as I’m not totally clued up yet on these zt’s lol many Thanks
