hello, sometimes those codes are related to malfunctioning EGR system. for instance if you EGR passageways are clogged all the flow of the exhaust air will go more to one cylinder than another causing a misfire, but that would more likely be a single cylinder misfire than multiple (because the other ports are clogged). EGR could be opening more than it should, but that should set an EGR code. i am not completely sure how your cars EGR system works. Another thing i've heard (i think this was for hondas) belive it or not if you put an aftermarket alternator belt on some of them it will set those codes because the belt is the wrong size so it makes the crank shaft change speeds barely so the crank sensor will see that and set codes, but it will run just fine, just set codes. really, im not making that up. if you havent figured the problem out let me know and i will see if there are any bullitens on it and ask the guys at work.
