SL65 CEL with misfires on cyl 1 through 6

I recently purchased an SL65 a few months ago and now I have a CEL light. OBD scanner show codes for misfires on cylinders 1 through 6. I'm guessing this is a coil pack issue from what I've been reading? The car is in limo mode and it's idling rough.

My question is, is it safe to drive it to the dealer for repair or should I have it towed? (30 min drive)

Also, I have an extended warranty, should I take it to a dealer or to an independent shop?

Thank you!

If you turn the car off and them back on the misfires should go away unless your coil pack is totally fried.
Just stay out of boost and drive it to the dealer you should be fine
