What brands specifically?

If you used OEM and the correct part numbers then the next step is confirm the injector is firing. Driving your car with this code will ruin the catalytic converter in short order, don't drive the car until this is fixed.

So I just changed the 3 ignition coil in the front and test drives it and it’s still there. When I stepped on the gas the check light came back on. Can anyone else give me some hints. I don’t know where to begin.

Inspect the injector connector if it looks good ohm test the injector and compare to others. Used plug wires could be bad.
