Default Misfires galore

Driving with no problems until suddenly the engine starts running like it is down multiple cylinders. Check engine light did come on but not flashing. I did limp it the short drive home and hook up my scanner.
P0191-21 Fuel Rail Pressure Sensor Circuit Range/Performance Bank 1 - Signal amplitude < minimum
P0273-11 Cylinder 5 Injector "A" Circuit Low - Circuit short to ground
P0300-00 ECM has detected multiple misfires
I'm hoping I can rule out the fuel pump since I could still drive it home at various speeds.
Bad fuel pressure regulator or pressure sensor? I'm thinking the pressure regulator is bad.
Unfortunately, my scanner cannot show fuel rail pressure as a live data stream.

Seems like one bad injector (in this case #5 in Bank 1, so right side of engine looking forward from the driver's seat) could result in these symptoms.

Are these the only codes that appeared?

I do have other codes. They are for CanBus communication problems. I have had those ever since buying the car. Everything still works with those codes present, other than this misfire problem.

Bosch injectors good price at Rock Auto. You'll want to do all 3 on that side and new plugs. Sounds just like mine, '14 V6s. One bank one year the other the next, was 10 years old but mid 20's in mileage.

The car is off to the mechanic. Please wish that my bank account survives.
I'll let you know the 'damage' when it is done.

Keep in mind one problem (like one bad injector or loose ground cable clamp) can lead to many seemingly unrelated codes.

If the mechanic's report comes back that many things need to be replaced be very wary.

Injectors commonly go bad in this engine regardless of mileage so I would start there.

How many miles on your F-Type? If they are doing the injectors, do the spark plugs as well if its due.

Shop called. The sparkplugs look factory original. The electrodes are worn down pretty far. So, sparkplugs are being replaced. If that doesn't fix the misfire, then swap coils to see if the misfire changes location. Change coils if needed.
On a side note, they found the spoiler lift motor heavily corroded. That's why it stopped working. (I had made a post about that last year.)

EDIT: Swapped coils around and still a misfire on 5. Injector replacement underway.

The six injectors ordered from rockauto.com should be here Saturday along with the spoiler lift assembly I ordered on Tuesday.

I promised an update,
I am now the owner of a 2014 Jaguar F-Type paperweight.
The first injector the shop tried to pull broke. They soaked them overnight with penetrating oil and it still broke.
With all the work necessary to remove that stuck injector piece along with what they have already done, I can't afford for them to continue.

Boy talk about bad luck!
I hope they were using the JLR type puller? One suggestion has been to get the engine hot and then try to pull the injectors.

Now I want to post this as it might give you some hope? We have had several forum members have this problem. Surprisingly they fixed it WITHOUT removing the heads! They drove the injector stub down into the combustion chamber with a steel punch and then fished the stub out using magnets and pliers and whatever it took thru the spark plug hole. Yes it is possible!

The one that broke off was the first one they tried. #5 cylinder the major misfire one.
The shop specializes in European vehicles. It is not a Mom & Pop neighborhood fix-it type. I'm sure they used the correct puller.

This has happened to many forum members, just do a search.

Show your mechanic this technique or tap the broken injector and screw it out. No need to remove the head.
