C250 CGI 2012 Idle Misfiring

Hello,

From almost 2 weeks, when i was accelerating on a highway, the Car start to shake & check engine light came on, Turn it off then back on the light is off and everything is good.

1 week later, i start the engine in the morning, the car start to shake and check engine light is on, but while driving it works fine.

After scanning it, it shows misfire on Cylinder 3 & 4, so the mechanic told me have to change coils and plugs and that what i did.

Second day in the morning when i start the engine, it shaked again and check engine light is on.

on the scanner it shows again misfiring Cylinder 3 & 4.
btw some times white smoke is off from the exhaust on the startup.

So please any help, on what might it be the problem ?

Regards,

My previous car was a is250, my car had cabon build up which caused misfires. I really hope you don't have carbon build up. What kind of gas do you use and what's the mileage on the car? Are you first owner?

Hello. I'm driving the same car and year model and I'm currently experiencing that. Coils and Spark plugs are new. How did you solve your problem?
Thank you
