2019 S 560 under 14K miles. all of a sudden started misfiring and CEL came on, at times blinking. car would stop many times. in neutral engine revs ok, when put on D, and accelerate the misfire would start. of course it kept getting worse and had it towed to MB of Grapevine. the dealer had the car for 4 days now and said they will have to run a battery of test as per factory recommendation. will know something by Tuesday. I really take care of my car and drive carefully. so very surprised when this happened. looking at the TSB, it sounds like a major issue.
Any input om my issue appreciated.

A lot of us get a steady CEL and do not get too excited. Read the code(s), reset the light, repeat. But, aflashing CEL indicates a severe problem, one that requires immediate car repair. In other words, if your check engine light is flashing, pull over and call a tow service.

My guess would be a bad Coil, My car had that around 9K miles before I owned it in reading the service history. But could be anything, I'm sure with issue like that the dealer should find the issue pretty quickly one would think.

Runnibg diagnostics
they are still running diagnostics on the car. So far the fuel system is good so obviously they are gonna look at the engine next. Take pics of cylinders and pistons. Very scary stuff. Car with only 13 k miles. The car never showed any problem before this. Will let you all know about the progress.
