What did the mechanic say after he "checked" it ?

replace the spark plugs and see if the issue persists, swap the coils around and see if the misfire follows the coil, and run through all that to narrow down your solutions so you end up spending less in the end.

i had the same problem, i got the valve adjusted and it solved the problem, couple of guys on the board here can help you out with the adjustment rather than taking it to a shop or dealership
