Firing order?

This code keeps coming up which reads as misfire detected cylinder number 5. I have replaced all the spark plugs, all the wires and the fuel injector. To me all that is left is the coils. Am I on the right track or am I missing something? How? Since each coil pack fires two cylinders won't that mess up the firing order? Can each pack be unplugged from the wiring harness separately?

Hello, I'm Danny.

After replacing those components it sounds like you might be having an issue with the coil pack itself. It is possible there might be an internal failure of the coil packs number 5 cylinder internals. I've attached a picture below of what it looks like and its location. Hope this helps and thanks for using 2CarPros. Check out the diagrams (Below). Please let us know if you need anything else to get the problem fixed.

Looking at the coil from driver side of car with the hood up, what is the order of the spark plug wires?

Thanks Mark, the Hyundai Service Manual has pic of the coil in a different order and then later in the manual they have a pic of the plug wire routing and that one shows a different order of plug assignment to the coil. The latter is the order that you replied with. THANKS for the help!
