Question 300SDL missing at idle

One of the daily driver is missing at idle, the same one that need a pinion seal replace, tranny leak fix etc etc. The list goes on and on. Otherwise it is a good car. Anyway, it is missing at idle, not all the time. It seems to happen more often with a long idle, like stopping at traffic light for a while. The engine is warmed up already.

I am planning to change out the primary and secondary filters, check the hoses for air leak, and do a diesel purge. What else can I do or test to get to the root of the problem?

Any suggestions are appreciated.
