P0300: Random/Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected

Start with the basic tune up stuff, and go from there. Being that its random, and not cylinder specific, I'd say its probably not a bad coil pack, but more likely bad plugs, wires, or a fuel related issue.

I'd change the plugs, wires, and fuel filter first, and if the issue still persists, at least you will have it narrowed down.
