Check the EGR Valve, it could be stuck open. Did you have the Engine light ON?
If so, did you scan it for Codes?

I was traveling long distance. For the first 500km the car was fine. Thereafter it jerked in drive. Then it stalled. We called a towtruck and he took us to the nearest town. Next day we got a universal pump. Fitted it and the car started. We filled the tank and hit the road again. It went well for a few km then it had the jerk again. We stopped at the nearest town. And checked fuel. There was no fuel and we filled yhe car again. We figured that yhe syphine pump is not working. We then topped the car every few km.
We stopped at the garage switch the car off. The car wouldn't start again. We plugged the machine and got error codes can bus communication error code. We took of yhe battery terminals and reset it by putting the 2 cables together for a few seconds. The car started fine and we drove again. But ever since every now and then yhe car hesitate to start. But no error code is picking up.
