Having 3 cylinders on the same bank shutdown at the same time though is a bit unusual for that engine because it's a twin spark plug engine. I would be leaning towards a fuel problem on that bank (mixture adaptions may be way off for the cylinder bank).

I'd check for fault codes with a scanner and check the fuel adaption figures for each bank and see if any figures vary greatly. It will be hard to diagnose without the right equipment.
You would advise that I go to dealer to have it checked out?
