I just looked up all those codes, looks like your TPS sensor is bad, or if you have a DBW throttle body, it could also be bad.
P1125 Accelerator Pedal Position (APP) System
P1516 Throttle Actuator Control (TAC) Module Throttle Actuator Position
Performance
the p120 and p220 are both TPS sensor codes

My wifes 300c did that also. Try your local library. The ones around here have Aldata on the computers and I could print out how to trouble shoot it. It could be TPS, throttle body, wiring cam position sensor or even a few more. Aldata will walk you through the whole thing. It's pretty easy, took me about 45 min on my wifes car. ended up being the cam sensor. $25.00 and about 15 min to change.

Like I say my wifes car was doing the exact same thing and trouble shooting with Aldata I came up with the cam sensor. That was in March and it hasan't acted up since. I'm not saying yours is the cam sensor just that you shouldn't start throwing parts at it. It can get exspensive.
