Anyone changed ignition coils and they won't twist out? What's the trick? Its not like I broke the top off one never I don't make mistakes. I don't want to try anything that would not be a good idea so I am seeing what everyone has to say. I thought some type of lubricant spray but use sparingly? I was lead to this because it is sputtering of shuttering when accelerating just my foot resting on the pedal. No code saying misfire. so side note if this sounds familiar and I am wrong in changing these.

Did you remove the bolt for the coil pack? Try twisting the boot while pulling. You should scan for any DTC codes.

You may have a failing EGR DPFE pressure sensor that will cause the engine to buck at lower speeds and light throttle. If so, see this thread:

Great, thanks Bill! I am going to get the DPFE. I have 84K and it will probably be the culprit from what I am seeing this is a common issue. *fingers crossed*
