N52 slight stutter at idle

My N52 has been having some misfire issues. It was throwing a code for cylinder 1 misfire. Would throw visual drivetrain error that would self clear. Misfire was pretty bad with loss of power.

Plugs didn't look bad but I changed them anyways. That appeared to have solved the problem as far as throwing a code. However, there is still the occasional stutter at idle. There is no loss of power and car runs fine.

My next step is coils, but I don't want to throw parts at this thing without knowing. I use bimmerLink to clear and read codes. As of now I do not see anything new. I would like to see fuel trims to rule out a leaky injector, but that option isn't available in the bimmercode app. I do see a couple informational codes for "data gear train missing", "request torque crankshaft gearbox", and"request torque crankshaft gearbox 2".

Any ideas on what to check next? Engine is N52B30 variant from 2012. 145,000 miles

Update. No new codes for misfire. However, I did get a 118602 error. Lambda probe in front of cat, fine tuning of the mixture: exhaust gas after cat too lean

new o2 sensors on upstream side. Don't like throwing parts but they do have 145K on them. Reset light. No new codes after 50 miles. MPG seems worse though.
