Stuttering under moderate acceleration

2011 R56 S 44k miles

I got the Engine symbol come up in YELLOW. Engine malfunction, reduced power message. Started this morning all of a sudden and didn't drive well over 2000rpm, then started stuttering at idle and gave me the engine yellow symbol right as I pulled into my mechanic.

UPDATE:

Mechanic called me, diagnostic says: Ignition Coil #3 misfiring. Part ordered, should be fixed later and we are also changing all spark plugs.
