I think this may be the first one, tho technically *I am not sure* whether this replacement was preventive maintenance, as sugggested, or a real failure... as I stated, there were no obvious symptoms to suggest a DI failure was imminent, no rough engine, stalling, etc., just the CEL. The car drove fine to the dealer ~20 miles so who's to say.
My comment to the service advisior: "That's the weakest link in that car." His reply: "Yea, it seems so."
Verbatim from the sevice ticket: "Faulty #1 spark plug and DI Module - code P1301 - scan for codes found code P1301 - perform flow chart found #1 cylinder missing - replace #1 plug and coil pack - clear code - road test and reinspect"
Could have been worse... I bought this car knowing of the DI Achillies Heel... my number came up earlier than expected, that's all but it's my duty to tell the truth... otherwise a beautiful experience in normal city/highway driving... good gas mileage... plenty of power... I love the car.
