Have you ever seen this behavior before?
Picking up a new coil in an hour so this post may be moot, but it would still be great information to know.

Did you ever have a SES light come on while you were driving the car? I had a bad coil one time while I was driving the X. The SES light came on. I carry a bluetooth scanner in the car and use an app on my phone to scan the car. It was for a misfire in cylinder number 2. Swap the coil with another cylinder and clear the code. Drove the X for a while and the SES light came on again. Scanned the car again and the misfire moved to cylinder 3. Bought a new coil at the local auto part store and replace the bad coil. Been fine for the past 4 years.
