Engine starts and idles for about 20 seconds then stalls. It will rev to about 2,000 rpm's then stalls again. I have changed the fuel filter, battery and the EGR valve. Do I need to reset anything or clean anything? Please help I'm a single mum and I need a car.

Welcome to 2CarPros.

First, this vehicle isn't offered in the US, so my technical information is very limited. However, I will do my best to help.

Based on your description, it sounds like a fuel pressure issue. I realize you replaced the fuel filter, but have you checked fuel pressure? If there is an issue with the pump, it may not be able to keep up with the demand.

I would suggest starting there. Here is a link that explains how in general to check pressure:

Let me know if that helps or if you have other questions.

Take care,
Joe
