When the car is started it seems like it's running rough it was recently driven on the beach had a mobile mechanic look at it and he couldn't tell me what's wrong with it he said maybe the coils or maybe the injectors ,when it's reved over 2000 revs it sounds fine

Spark plugs are due at 100,000 Kms, and these do have problems with coils tracking, check for fine black lines down the stem of the spark plugs, this is tracking and coils and plugs should be replaced.
