Misfire codes BUT car is driving fine?? Reset 500 miles ago came back on!?!?
OK about 2 weeks ago all my check engine VSA maint lights came on , So I scanned the codes when I got home and it was P0300 , P0301, P0304 randon misfire and misfire in cylinder 1 and 4.. I had a misfire months back But car shook bad and did not go over 50MPH and that was a bad coil that I replaced.
I also remeber the gay put the wrong gas (reg 87) in my car and it came on 100 miles after the gas was put in so I figured it was bad gas cuz cylinder 1 fires 1st followed by 4, so I reset and fill the half of tank w / super.
Today 500 miles later the CEL lights came on again but car STILL runs fine and today it was P1399 (undefined) and P0301 misfire in cylinder 1..
I changed my plugs at 150K miles and have 172K now , what can it be? Dirty injectors?
What do u guys think, car runs FINE, good but misfired 2 times in the last 500 miles (2 weeks) what can I try (cheap) to fix it.. I just got a new job at infiniti so I need it to last a yer or so cuz I just closes on a condo and can't affford my G37X coupe just yet!!

If it was a bad coil pack wouldn't the car idle rough? I had these misfire codes before when the coilpack was bad and the car shook and could not drive it cuz it would not go over 50mph . This time car drives fine and performs great no rough idle or shaking at any speeds?
