Angry Boxster s 3.2 misfire - HELP!!!

Hi guys

Really need some help here
So my 2004 Boxster 986 S 3.2 started sounding really rough

I’ve plug a diagnostic machine in and it is coming back with Sporadic Misfire on cylinder 2 4 and 6 and a coolant temp sensor issue.

Is ther one thing that could cause all the misfires, or would it be separate issues

Thanks

Misfires on all my cars, including the Boxster have been because of bad ignition coil packs.

The fact you have three with a sensor issue likely points to something else. Is the wiring harness on that side ok?

Agree, check the loom plug that goes down to a connection on the drivers side (left in my case)that goes to the side.
