MisFire 1 3 6

I woke up this morning and started my car and got in and the CEL was on and Idling and driving like a POS so I went to my mechanic and he scanned it and found 1 3 6 misfire is it possible that the three coils just went bad on me ? or more likely another issue?

oh and he reset the CEL and it came back the same

Swap the coils to the 2, 4 and 5 cylinders and see if the code follows the coils.

Try plugs first; they're cheaper! I had a misfire issue and it was my plugs. Just make sure to get NGK's. That was my problem. Aftermarket isn't the way to go when it comes to plugs.

Arent 1,3 and 6 on the same bank?
Usually a misfire will cause others to misfire thats why you get multiple codes.

No, IIRC its:

1-2-3
4-5-6

When looking at the motor standing in front of the car.
