    Hi All, I gassed up my 2011 458 with 8k miles this weekend. By the time I got home it started stabling going up the driveway and sounded like it wasn't running on all cylinders. I checked the codes on my BlueDriver code reader. It came up with an error code of P0303, which is a cylinder 3 misfire. The most common issue is the coil or the spark plug. Does the cylinder configuration match that of the 360?

    Also, would it be possible to get bad gas and show this error? I have yet to check with the gas station but I would be curios if this could throw a code like this. Appreciate your thought. Thanks!

    I have a BlueDriver code reader. My 2003 BMW Z4 threw the exact same errors two years ago . New spark plugs and engine coils fixed it. My local Ferrari dealer replaced spark plugs / engine coils at 10,000 miles on my 2014 458 Spider.

    I believe that there are little tags on the wires that tell you the cylinder #'s. At least I know that they are on my 488 (I think they were on my 458 as well)
