Try leaving the dress up cover over the coil packs off. It may be engine heat. Also check alternator voltage is not over 14.6 volt when engine running at fast idle. You are not alone with this problem.

Sounds like it needs spark plugs and wires, and a fuel system treatment.
SOURCE: 1999 ES300 - Repeated Ignition Coil Failures
The coils are probably all the same age and if one goes it is not unusual for the others to follow. Oxygen sensors fail routinely. Some at 15K some at 115K. The failures you have describe for the most part are unrelated to each other.

Several thnigs to check there; review all informastion disponible to do it and solve this...
P0356 - Ignition Coil F Primary/Secondary Circuit Malfunction
The ignition signal from the Powertrain Control Module (PCM) or Electronic Control Module(ECM) is sent to and amplified by the power transistor. The power transistor turns ON and OFF the ignition coil primary circuit. This ON/OFF operation induces the proper high voltage in the coil secondary circuit.
Symptoms
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Lack/Loss of Power
- The engine may be harder to start
- Engine hesitation
Possible Causes:
- Open or short in the ignition coil circuit
- Ignition coil circuit shorted to ground
- Ignition coil connector
- Damaged ignition coil
- Damaged PCM or ECM
Possible Solution:
- If damage, repair ignition coil circuit
- Replaced ignition coil
- Replaced PCM or ECM

P0152 - O2 Sensor Circuit High Voltage (Bank 2 Sensor 1)
The heated oxygen sensor 1 is placed into the exhaust manifold. It
detects the amount of oxygen in the exhaust gas compared to the outside
air. The heated oxygen sensor 1 has a closed-end tube made of ceramic
zirconia. The zirconia generates voltage from approximately 1V in richer
conditions to 0V in leaner conditions. The heated oxygen sensor 1
signal is sent to the ECM. The ECM adjusts the injection pulse duration
to achieve the ideal air-fuel ratio. The ideal air-fuel ratio occurs
near the radical change from 1V to 0V.
Symptoms:
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- High Fuel Consumption
- Excessive Smoke from Exhaust
Possible Causes:
- Harness or connectors (The heated oxygen sensor 1 heater circuit is open or shorted.)
- Front Heater oxygen sensor heater (Bank 2) may be faulty
Possible Solution:
Replacing the O2 Sensor 1 usually takes care of the problem

P0174 - Fuel Injection System Too Lean Bank 2
With the Air/Fuel Mixture Ratio Self-Learning Control, the actual
mixture ratio can be brought closely to the theoretical mixture ratio
based on the mixture ratio feedback signal from the heated oxygen
sensors 1. The ECM calculates the necessary compensation to correct the
offset between the actual and the theoretical ratios.
In case the amount of the compensation value is extremely large (The
actual mixture ratio is too lean.), the ECM judges the condition as the
fuel injection system malfunction and light up the MIL (2 trip detection
logic).
Symptoms:
- Engine Light ON (or Service Engine Soon Warning Light)
- Excessive Fuel Consumption
Possible Causes:
- Intake air leaks
- Front Heated oxygen sensor may be faulty
- Injectors may be faulty
- Exhaust gas leaks
- Incorrect fuel pressure
- Lack of fuel
- Mass air flow sensor may be faulty
- Incorrect PCV hose connection
Possible Solution:
Dirty air filter of faulty air flow sensor are common causes of the problem.

P2197 - DODGE - Sys Too Rich at Hier Load Bank1
Means that the O2 sensors on each bank are seeing WAY
too much oxygen in the exhaust gas. In normal operation the signal from
the O2 sensors should swing back and forth between rich and lean.
Your sensors are locked on lean.
Those codes are the same as P0174 (and P0171). Sounds like you have a
vacuum leak somewhere. Most common place is the PCV elbow where it
connects to the throttle body adapter.
