"For what it is worth"

I looked in my Bentley service manual (poor at best).

If I read it right P1123 and P1125 are for the O2senors. Below lower limit/lean mixture threshold.
One code is for the left bank the other is for the right bank. So going on that:
You have something causing to much air for the amount of fuel or not enough fuel for the amount of air. at all cylinders.

You already tested your fuel system and it checks good?

So that leaves to much air for the amount of fuel.

So your looking for something that has to do with air and affects both cylinder banks equally.
1.You could have a vacuum leak
2.You could have a faulty or dirty MAF sensor.
3.You could have faulty MAF sensor wiring, a short, a broken wire , a bad ground, a bad connection, or high resistance in the MAF wiring.
4. There could be a problem with the DME (hope not).

you could have faulty O2 sensors or O2sensor wiring issues.
But it is very unlikely that both O2sensors or their wiring would go bad at the same time.
So I would drive it and see if the codes come back.
