Could be either battery, spark wires or ground wire. My bet is on spark wires and battery both. Seems to have no more problem with lights flickering, not loosing stored radio channels, sensors hold their calibration and so on.

But give it some more days! If I know this piece of "#"!#¤! right the problems will all be back soon

just curious, when you checked your fuel pressure with a gauge, what was the exact pressure at idle?

It was at some point 55psi, but it got worse an worse before I changed it. It was down to almost 50 at idle.
