check for broken timing belt /chain

Fuel pump relay?

Nothing to fix friend. See, in diesel, when cold, there is an electric plunger on the throttle that speeds the idle a bit till warm up. Connected to that same wire is the cold start/temperature sensor. When cold/cool this sensor will excite the plunger to speed the idle, and put more fuel into the engine making the smoke you see, until warm up is reached and the sensor shuts down. You really don't have a repair needed friend.

possible cv failure take it in for a drive line and front suspension check

take it to an accredited service center that has experience on your vehicle as it is not brand new as it is 8 years old and items like the MAF/VAF sensor could be slow to respond and signal a air flow change to the ECM the thing is that it is to be fix or adjust so that the rpm change is in response to the pedal setting Could be a slow reaction throttle position sensor or a problem pedal position sensor have the fault codes read at the service center to get a closer idea as to the fault area I don't think that a delay would be on the injectors as stated as it would created a dangerous drive situation in the event of hard braking as the engine would still be producing power against the brakes and that would stop the ABS from being effective

i you can get a new temp gauge sender unit and install it bleed the air out of the cooling system by loosening off the highest point hose have a compression test done to check for head gasket or cracked head take it to an accredited radiator specialist and have a flow test done on the radiator it is possible that the cores are blocked and it needs repalcing

the clutch is not adjustable its hydraulic if its slipping its worn out and needs replacing

Top up your fluid, if it works look for a leak on the cylinder, master and slave

put new plugs in

Is it automatic or manual?

Does it idle normally if you shift to neutral (assuming automatic)?

Does it run normally except when you come to a stop? No roughness hesitation or missing?

The problem could be many things, some simple and minor and, some not.

Is the air conditioner on? Is the symptom different with it off?

This could be anything from a vacuum leak to a transmission problem.

The IAC is not a "sensor" it is an actuator. It is on the throttle body near the engine air intake flex tube that comes from the air cleaner..

Sounds like your throttle position sensor needs to be replaced. Hope this helps.

Sorry I can't say precisely where it is. Blower motor resistors get hot and so they are usually positioned close to the motor and placed where they receive a strong flow of cooling air. Sometimes they are made easily accessible and sometimes quite a bit of dismantling is needed and sometimes contortions are needed when the resistor is buried under the dash.

Some cars feed the high speed on dash fans thru the ignition switch. So it will only work at low speed for heat and AC..
