So I guess you have a code for misfire on #4.....? Yes these coils are confined in a hot place and problems are common. coil for #4 (and #1) spark plug just sits over #4 plug. www.avigex.ca/kia/kiatop.jpg Change the coil AND the spark plug. Use anti seize compound on plug threads.
Erratic temp needle can have several causes, ranging from instrument panel ground problem to blown head gasket....so if you have other symptoms, make it clear.
