He spent 2 hours and basicly said he is not sure what to look for next.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks
It is unusual to say the least to get both rich and lean mixture codes at the same time.

Two questions: What type of scanner did your mechanic use to obtain these codes, and did he test for O2 sensor cycling? It is not unusual for a non Porsche specific diagnostic system to throw a strange mix of codes that make no sense, so if he used a generic system, get it rescanned on a Porsche system (PST II, PIWIS, or Durametric).
