Autotap shows misfire

I hooked up my 06 S65 to a laptop running Autotap, just to check it out. However, I was surprised to see under possible codes, not confirmed codes, it show a engine misfire on cylinders 10 and 11 (P3010 and P3011), and another code for multiple cylinder misfire. I have no dash lights illuminated, and as far as I can tell, the engine is not running rough. I thought that maybe the Autotap was misreading my car or something, so we hooked up the Autotap to my cousins S55, and there were no codes at all. Just curious if anyone has any thoughts on this, and if there was an engine misfire on 2 cylinders, what would be the symptoms. Thanks

misfire codes are not abnormal for this car, as long as you dont have steady CEL that when cleared comes right back you are fine

Cool, thanks. Is there a reason why this is not abnormal on the S65? I guess I am just curious, cause I was getting worried, that 2 cylinders show misfire. The CEL light never came on, and the car seems to run good, no rough starts, no abnormal engine roughness or noises. Thanks.

it could be as simple as a bad batch of gas causing a few random misfires.
