This car has the newer M271 engine. These have a problem with valve guides that causes misfires.(carbon fouling of exhaust valve stems)This was fixed from engine number 677947. Your engine number is 129523!.You need to do a compression test. They also suffer from split breather pipes under the air-box. (hard to see!) Re-flash of the control unit (then SCN coding) is also an option to cure uneven running on these. I have sent one of these back to the dealer for "goodwill warranty" recently . They are fitting exchange heads. What is the mileage? More to follow when I have time
