Unlikely to be the same issue. The injector issue is a hard circuit fault and not intermittent. If an injector fails it will log an injector open circuit DTC.
The issue with the injectors cause intermittent misfires

An injector failure will cause a misfire but the issue with the injectors will cause a circuit fault DTC to set (as the failure results in an open circuit injector).

Check the injectors impedance to confirm if there is an issue. Two misfires is too few events to say there is an issue.

I'll get a multimeter on them tonight

I have development a rougher idle
o2 readout are not as consistent
stft always negative greater than 10%
something is up

SS V Redline VF Series II
I bought my SS V Redline in January 2017 so built late 2016. The car has done just under 37K km. Last Saturday engine light came on, service ESP and traction control light on. We scanned it at home and got back a code P0301. We swap the coil and lead from cylinder 1 to cylinder 3 and the same code came up.
Took it to the dealer this morning and they replaced all 8 injectors under warranty. They confirmed that it was cylinder 1 that had a faulty injector.
Also I have a mate that owns exactly same car that he bought about 3 months before I purchased mine. The only difference is, his is a manual. He had this issue twice already. I am assuming that the first time they replaced only one injector and second time (last week) they changed all of them. The service manager told me that Holden will be replacing all 8 injectors now if this issue comes up.

My SSV Redline built and purchased in January 2017 had an injector fail early May. Number 4 injector along with two other high ohm reading injectors had an issue. All injectors were replaced but with same part numbers so the issue could come back. 33k Klms auto sedan. The car was so smooth when I got it back but now starting to idle rough again. I also had very high idle before injectors went.

I am not that fond of putting the same injector back in. Anyone got thoughts on Deatschwerks injectors for $699? Twice the price of OEM from the U.S. and probably half the price of Holden.
