That the front cylinder, if it returns replace the coil. But you may want to pull that coils and check for oil leaking into the wells from the cam cover leaking. And now you know and can see if, and how soon it returns. If the car sat for 5 months it might have only been alittle gumming of the injector pintle, i add a can of bg fuel system cleaner to the tank, not as good as a flush, but dissolves real light deposits.

Depending on the reader, there will be an option to clear the fault codes, thus putting the light out. It's standard on any post 2001 Euro cars and 1996 on USA spec' cars.
