i have checked wires/plugs/replaced both coils and ignition module/checked EGR valve its fine. what else could i check?

If the problem with the misfire is there at idle you may have a basic engine mechanical problem. many times these get overlooked while suspecting electrical problems. I would at least check the compression at this point and inspect for vacuum leaks. If you have a vacuum gage is it pulsing? Steady? Let us know and maybe we can walk you through a few steps.
