05 s600: Hard start, random cylinder misfire cel

It's always had a slow start, but has never had a problem.

Lately, it's gotten pretty tough to start, sometimes takes 2 tries.

But this morning, twice already, it's thrown a cel, and dropped two cylinders this morning.

We reset the cel, and a few hours later when I started it, the cel came back on with another cylinder misfire (opposite bank).

Thoughts? Fuel system issue? Anyone else have this issue before? What resolved it for you?

Thanks,
Em

Gas mileage does not seem adversely affected either. 23mpg highway. Approx 15mpg around town.

Do you have MB STAR? If you do your own work, its probably worth getting one.

No, I've never come across starting problems. All the problems that spring to mind would cause other symptoms.

No, we don't have star. Something we'd like to pick up probably after the holidays.
