There have been one or two similar occurences. The error codes actually tell which cylinder doesn't fire. Not common, but it happens. The champion platinum plugs have been trouble-free, as far as I know - not a single post on the forums I'm on of any malfunction with the champion platinums - I've had mine in for 40,000+ miles.
