What's causing my Audi A4 to misfire?

My Audi A4 recently developed a misfire on number two cylinder. I've replaced the spark plugs but that didn't resolve it. I checked the coil pack and leads, and they seem ok. I even changed the injectors around and the problem persists - any advice?

It's still likely to be due to poor insulation and moisture ingress to the coil pack.
