Default Ignition 2,3,5 missfire

Hi
I have a 2003 c230 Kompressor coupe
Before the car went into storage it started a problem as such;

-My check engine is on
-The engine shakes hard from side to side and runs very loud.
-The smell of fumes coming out of the muffler or exhaust tipareraw and smeelslike alcohol (ethonol) or mechanic said "rotten eggs"
-There is small amount of water coming from the exhaust
-I didnt drive the car much after but in first gear the car picks up very hard, shakes, and is loud and with very little power
-My fuel consumption has noticibly increased as well

I took the car to a well mechanic where they deal only with German cars and they ran a computer scan and told me as such
-temp coolent sensor is detected
-Ignition 2,3,5 are missfired and couple more which i cant remember
-They suggested a good tune up
I will take it this Thursday for through checkup but need your guys help and heads up in what i might be getting myslef into..
THANKS for your time.

Hi,

Need to understand what the other codes are. The codes are always the starting point foir diagnosis.

Looks like you need more than a tune up. A good service is always a starting point BUT it may well not rectify your problem.
