Hello,

This can be caused by a few different things like fuel pressure, spark plugs, a leak in the intake system, Mass Air Flow sensor (MAF), or a couple of other things. So, it's going to be a process of elimination, so a little patience will go a long way here. I have included a link for you to go to down below:

Please go through this guide and get back to us with what you find out please. We can go from there.

Thanks,
Alex
