Hi,
First, this vehicle isn't offered in the US, so my technical information is very limited. However, based on your description, it sounds like there is an issue with a component called an idle air control valve. If it is not allowing air to bypass the throttle plate at idle, the engine won't idle or start.
Take a look through these two links. They describe how to service one as well as replacement.

Let me know if that helps.
Take care,
