Default 2.8L V6 99.5 Multiple Cylinder Misfire Detected (mostly on cyl 4 and cyl 5)

Car is: 99.5 A4 2.8 V6 Quattro

Little info:
*Spark plugs NGK BKR6EIX Iridium IX (almost new june2013 ~9k on it)
*BERU Spark plug wires 47K miles on it (bought in 2009)-looks good no cracks.

*ICM original

*Battery year 2010

*found just a little oil in cyl 5 (cyl: 1,2,3,4,6 - NO OIL)


I tested wires and spark plugs:
*****
spark plugs replaced again(new)
I also switched spark plugs wires between cyl 6 & cyl 4 to check wires = still misfire on cyl4, but next week it moved to cyl 5?
*****

Is it ICM? is it injectors? or something else.


It started around 12jan2014 - and every time I got misfire I VAG it - copy codes and clear them. It happens not everyday - please see below.
