Default Cylinder #5 misfires

Hi,

I've 1999 Nissan Maxima GLE. Bought 1 week ago with 121k mileage.

Since three days, it's giving SES symbol.

Checked with BimmerBenz (AnT Import Auto Inc), who also service for Japanese cars.
And they found #5 is misfiring.

There was wrong (not nissan compatible) spark plug. And coil also need to be changed.
It seems all the 6 plugs and 1 coil need to be changed.

I was given an estimate for $28.20 for each plug and 105.75 for coil.
Totally, including 2 hr labour charge and 1hr diagnose charge, it is $500.

Pls let me know if the price is correct for plug and coil.

Also, pls suggest if I can get good (Nissan compatible) spare parts from any other place. I'm in Phoenix (85032).

Also, can you pls let me know what are my rights in this case.
When I bought this car, these things are not revealed to me.

The car was manipulated so SES hasn't come when I bought it.
But, in 3 days and for less than 50 miles, I encountered this.

Pls help me in this.
I feel like I'm cheated.

Just to add one more, initially when scanned, it was giving, P0305 (Knock Sensor). But, later on, it was showing only #5 cylinder misfire only.

Thanks,
Sasi
