The check engine light came on on my 2011 ct200h Monday. I took it to the dealership and the code that came up was p0301, misfire cylinder one. They replaced the engine coil and spark plugs. 2 days after the light came on again. Took it back and the same code came up. I'm working all weekend and didn't have time to leave my car, and need my car to get to work. I plan on bringing it back Monday am. Any recommendations? I paid $500 for the coil and new plugs, which seems overpriced to me. Anything I can do in the meantime? Any advice is greatly appreciated.

RepairPal Certified shops can diagnose and repair your 2011 Lexus CT200h. They provide transparent pricing with a minimum 12-month or 12,000-mile warranty on repairs and services.
To be honest, no. There isn't anything you should do but bring it back.You paid good money for a repair and it didn't work. It's on the dealer now to figure it out. By you trying anything it may just complicate the situation. Leave it just as they left it.

These vehicles especially the 2012 models are notorious for head cylinder gaskets failure the head gasket starts to warp at about 130k miles, these are common issues with the engines in the 2012 Lexus 200h and the Prius of the same year.
Will it be ok to drive the next 2 days? Thanks so much for getting back to me.
