9/10 times it is a failed MAF or intake air leak. Start there.

Agreed. I had the same issue with the check engine light coming on. Same codes, but the car ran just fine. Would reset the codes and would be ok for about a month and then come back on. Instead of just cleaning the MAF I bought a new one off of Amazon. Got the Bosch MAF. Spent an hour installing it and that fixed the problem.

Same codes after Throttle body clean. For me it was improper re-seating of AOS to Throttle body hose.
It has an odd seating system on each end so make sure they seated correctly
