I also had a CEL condition that wouldn't go away. Random misfire showed in the Tech II. Everything was checked (DI cassettes, vacuum leaks, engine computer etc $$$$$). Finally, the garage did a serious cylinder soak (to remove carbon) - still the CEL persisted. About 2 months later, the CEL suddenly went away. The mechanic figures the carbon treatment finally kicked in.
My advice is to get a cylinder soak before anything else. I wish I did.
