Well, my wife loves the look of the Outlook and we found a 2007 with 50,000 miles on it for a decent deal I think. However one code has come on, the P0300 random misfire. I ask a mechanic and he said alot of things could cause itm spark plugs, ekg values, or even just bad gas. Its running smooth, so i just turned it off and see how long until it does it again...Anyone have this code pop up? Reading all these problems on the Outlook now makes me worry! Is it a good car?

It was reported on an Acadia here http://www.acadiaforum.net/forum/index.php?topic=6120.0.

Here is what the service invoice said:
"Cust(omer) states the SES light is coming on and flashing at times. OnStar cannot give code.
Found code P0300 stored. Removed spark plug and found fuel fouled. Tested ignition coil and found ok. Performed fuel injector testing and found the #2 fuel injector dumping excessive fuel into #2 cylinder.
Replaced the #2 injector and plug. Rebuilt 2 remaining injectors. Cleared Code and road tested. Now found misfire on cylinder #4. See Line 4 for diagnosis and repair."

Further down on the page he made this entry:

"After repair of Line 1 found misfires on cylinder #4, found the #4 ingitiion coil weak and causing misfire, replaced the #4 ignition coil.
