.... OK it won't fix the car but you will feel less stressed out.

You need to get the fault code read -without this it's just a guessing game as to what might be the problem as it could be one of many, many things :bang:. Damned expensive exercise if you just replace everything people suggest in the hope of curing the problem.
Beg/borrow/buy a OBD2 code reader, garages can read the codes (& often charge as much as buying a code reader yourself) -once you've found out the code post it on this thread & then someone can point you in the right direction.

Hi, and welcome, they are pretty simple cars,


get the code read, and it SHOULD give a basic description of the problem,

feel free to post the code / ask advice,
