Default Ticking time bomb! Second issue within 30 days.

First my air suspension went out, replaced both fronts. Now I am having check engine lights on.
The other day while idling the car with the AC on while I waited for a friend to come out, my check engine light came on.
Went to my mechanic, code P0303
I replaced all the spark plugs last year, so all we did was swap the coils to see if that’s the issue. Reset the light & drove home.
End of the next day the light came back on, went back to my guy. Same code popped up
This time we took the spark plug out & was shocked to see what a 14k miles had done to the plug.
Ended up replacing the spark plug & reset the light again.
We determined it was the fuel injection. I ended up ordering new injectors & spark plugs
I’m starting to wonder what’s next!? Car only has 137,xxx & has a lot left in her.

I hope it's nothing major .

I have attached some info that should help in narrowing down the problem.
