The car calls for only 87 octane which I was running and kept getting the same codes. My mechanic replaced all 6 ignition coils only to have the car continue to misfire and read bad coils. After replacing 9 coils total I was told just to turn the car off and it will reset it's self. Not happy with that answer I asked around and was told because the car is a turbo I should be running 93 octane gas. I switched and never had the code or misfires again. Try running just premium gas. Worked for me.
