My Ceed auto has lost power. The car starts okay first thing but as I drive to work the cars performance decreases and when at a stand still is feels like its going to stall. my fuel consumption has increased and the car has just cut out on me a few times. the check engine light has now come on. I have changed the air filter which removed the check light for a few hours but it has now returned.

we do not have that model here in US so no information on it . however, check fuel pressure with a gauge if you can rent one and scan for codes it may be low on fuel pressure causing the problem. See link.
