Default Car in shop: rough idle, check engine light came on

My '02 A4 1.8T had been sitting for 3 days (not unusual for me) and when I started it up, the engine idled rough and eventually smoothed out. I started to drive it and the engine light came on after 1 minute. Decided to drop it off at the dealer, just to be safe.

We'll see what happens. I hope to have my baby back today.

Default Misfire on cyl 1, inspected ignition coils.

According to the VAG (code 5051) cyl one had misfired, though everything looked fine upon inspection.

I somehow suspect that I'll be replacing a coil pack in the next 6 months, since this is a known problem.
