Unhappy M278/R231 P0303 Code- Cylinder 3 misfire detected

The vehicle is a 2013 SL550 with @38,000 miles on it. I was pulling into the garage after about a 40 mile trip on the freeway and at low idle the check engine light illuminated and it started running rough. I turned off and the next day I pulled codes and have a "P0303 Code- Cylinder 3 misfire detected" I have the Foxwell with MB Software) . I stored the code, cleared it and then took the car around the block. As I was at idle pulling it into my driveway, the same thing happened, check engine light + rough idle. So I turned it off and of course it will go to my Mercedes guy sometime next week when I can get it in there. I'm sure he'll figure out what's causing it and of course I am on pins and needles to find out since it's no longer under warranty.

I just wanted to know if anyone else experienced this, and if so, what turned out to be the cause?

Thanks.

M278.928 Cylinder 3 misfire

Hello there,

I'm having the same issue. I've already got the spark plugs in all cylinder, and the coil and injector replaced in cylinder 3 but the issue is still there.
I wonder if your issue got fixed and what was it?

Thanks
