If you have changed CTS for a GM item, Rule that out. I would agree with funked FPR, Prob stuck and holding more pressure.

I doubt its the injectors.

scan it again and clear the codes, then disconnect the battery, I had a similar problem on mine and changed loads of bits just like you in the end i took the throttle body off and gave it a good clean and took the idle air control valve out and soaked it in brake cleaner for half hour, dried it off and re-fitted it and it was sorted straight away, ran like a dream :thumbs:

as i mentioned in a previous post my car started rough idling ,and i got 2 codes up
P1120 throttle control valve(broken tube)
P0170 fuel trim malfunction bank 1
now today i replaced the throttle position sensor ,and lambda ,and cleaned the plugs cuase as they were sooted to fuck ,but the car is still idling very rough and black smoke. now i know this is because off over fueling i also did a compression test and all cylinders were around 150psi.
i forgot to say its a corsa sport x16xe ,with a powerbox fitted i checked vacumm pipes there all ok ,iv replaced crank sensor,lambda,throttle position ,coolant temp,map,and im going to fit a idle control valve tomorrow.
so why is it over fueling so bad!! ???
fuel pressure regulator ??
injectors??
air temp sensor??
or somthing else??

Help please as i need my car and mpg isnt the best right now .
