Hello all,
Today I started up my jetta (automatic, AZG engine) and it idled extremely rough. The check engine light came on within the first minute and started blinking. It then changed from a blinking light toa solid light. That prompted me to have it scanned at AutoZone where i got this code: P0301: Cylinder 1 Misfire. The car has 84k on it. What's going on? What can I do to fix it?
BTW...the car ran out of gas one this summer due to a mass area shortage, and this morning the car's gas light was on (I was going to fill it up).

if it is one cylinder only it will not be your coilpack. DO NOT REPLACE IT. check you plugs and your plug wires, just because you changed them doesnt mean they cant be bad, would you rather find out its a plug that you just changed now or after you spend $300.
