    Update:

    I changed all 4 intake manifold gaskets with new ones.
    Changes both front o2 sensors.
    Replaced 2 fuel injectors with new ones (the old have broke during the work.)
    Changed the Fuel Pump with new one

    Result is still the same P0170 Bank 1 to Lean and during idle the dme set the cel light.

    Anyone a idea what i can do now to solve this incredible Problem?

    i still have the same problems! did all the same work as you, but i also have P0170. i haven't done fuel filter yet.

    when your car is idling while warmed, and you press the throttle minimally, does your car shake at all? mine idles great but does not run well when i do this.

    I Have already done the Fuel Filter and the Fuel Pressure Regulator nothing changes.

    My idle is on P warm Bad with vibration
    In D less Vibration but still there.
    When i rev the car little bit its ok just little vibration.

    This Problem is so hard to solve i changed nearly evrything without success.

    Could a exhaust manifold leak on bank 1 be responsible for this issue?
    And if yes how i could locate this or find it out?

    Exhaust leaks can cause lean code due to oxygen gets in the path of the O2 sensor and it see it as "lean" condition.

    If you have INPA you can discover where the likely fault is from the adaptation values - they will inform you of the likelihood of the problem being due to fuel pressure or a vacuum leak - more information here:

    For instance - this post here:

    Shows a high positive Additive Adaptation but small Multiplicative Adaptation - a sure sign of a vacuum leak
