is the car running ok ? .. if so have a good autoparts store delete the code from memory .. test drive the vehicle ... see if the code returns ... if it does repost for more info .... sensors pick up on misfire's for numerous reasons ... this could be just a glitch ?

replace coil #1 ... i generally advise to replace all coils at the same time .. as they tend to breakdown in sequence .. but for now let's replace #1 to make sure this is the fault ?
