it could be a lot of things. A bit hard to diagnose over the internet, and ultimately the dealer is responsible for finishing the job ... even if it means replacing the car.

You need deeper diagnosis - even after replacing all those ignition parts the error codes still come up. Well, we can now assume that the parts you put in are not the fault and  didn't change a thing. You have to keep on looking. Missfires can be usually too lean of a mixture and thru the scanners missfire monitor you can see the missfire in real time.  You have two cyl next to eachother which can indicate they suffer from a one source air leak - thus leaning out your cylinders. Another scenario is that the two injectors are at fault although thats iffy at best.  If compression on #5 and #6 are as even as the rest..your engine is fine mechanically speaking. So the hunt continues...Is their a PCV valve near those bad cyls ? or any vacuum tubes ? Spray some Brake Kleen near the intake on those cyl to see if the rpm goes up as a vacuum leak makes the RPM go up if their is a leak.  Check your clamps on any intake ducting..make sure they are tight...any air that gets in thru them is not metered and causes imbalance.  Other ideas are EGR valve leak or stuck partial open.
