Sometimes as you are on the road the car quickly stops as if there is no fuel in it. It also takes longer time before you can start it.

Best to run a fuel pressure test and check that the fuel filter is not blocked. if it has not been replaced for some time it will be a good idea to get it changed now.

To locate the fuel filter too has been the problem. We cannot find where it is located.

i do not have very much information in this model, but doing an online search it looks as if it is an inline filter. so just follow the fuel lines and you should see it, if nothing is seen it may be part of the pump in the fuel tank.
