X5 E53 injector problem

Hi Guys,
My X5 has a problem, after I floored it for a couple of seconds, it will idle very rough for a while, also when accelerating, there is extra noise and low on power, I suspect overfueling as the injector readings were as follows:

1: -1.6
2: -0.4
3: -0.5
4: -0.4
5: +0.4
6: +3.0

The Bosch centre told me this is still in spec but the other independent BMW guys I spoke to said 1 and 6 is no good, I am going to replace them and want to know if someone has 2nd hand injectors to sell (do not want to buy new ones and find this is not the problem)

Thanks in advance.

I know its a year later to reply but I had the same problem for about a year,replaced almost all electronic units, rail rods, almost injectors as well, after I was told it is only that what is causing the issue. I eventually got it sorted by specialist in Joburg that only had to replace the fuel pump and filter. All was sorted and went well.
