Went on holiday for 10 days and when we came back my C350 CDI had a terrible misfire, felt like it was running on 3 cylinders, luckily it cleared up after about a mile. Is this normal or should I have it looked at?

Been running fine ever since, so not sure why this occurred.
 
Hi it seams like you had a bit of air in the fuel system , probably the fuel filter or a fuel line might not seal properly and if the car is parked for a long period it might let the air in and cause misfire .
If I was you I'd have it checked .:thumb:
