I did crank it briefly (after checking oil ) and it sounded like a miss but also didnt sound right to me .. im wondering if i could drive it to the shop or i need to tow it ..
has good pressure and was a quart down from full when i checked it this morning ..
here go to this site and look up all the codes that its reading. The only one you listed that i know off the top of my head would be P0300 which is random missfire. Anyways check it out and look them up...it tells you what causes them and how to fix them also

If your oil pressure is at where its suposed to be then its not main bearings.
