hi. ive done quite a few of these. cylinder 4 is the cylinder nearest to the timing belt, (french, backwards) you will prob find the injector connector is corroded up. most times the corrosion has got into the injector and a new one is required. the other fault codes you have could be to do with the missfire. but a suspect coil pack sounds more like it. Ive come across this b4 too on these.sorry of this post is a bit late for you .

water drips from the drivers washer jet onto the injector causing the corrosion as tony said. there is a mod kit for the washer jet. its a rubber seal and a washer but a bit silicone around the base of the jet works just as well.
