You know what's kind of bugging me is that oil in your plugs. I asked around to the mechanics I know and every single one told me that usually the piston ring goes bad and this happes, I really doubt that's why you have oil on your plugs. But hopefully it was just caused by the missfire somehow.

I think he means the valve cover gasket was bad and it leaked oil in the area around the plugs and coil packs. I had that problem. Ruined a coil pack. It all started with a burning oil smell while sitting at a stop lite. Later came misfires.....Got the code and had misfire plug 1 and 3 and also had lean mixture...2 bad check valves.

Oh, ok, that sounds much more relieving, hopefully that's all his prob since the dealer apparently did something with the head.

Yea I think the dealer might have got some oil in there when they changed the cam tensioner.

I cleaned all the oil up replaced the plugs and as soon as the idle kicked down it started misfiring.

I don't know maybe clean the MAF. After that to the dealer.

Well, I'm out of ideas. Try your MAF to see if it works. Maybe someone with more expertise will see this and help you out.
