Inconsistent starting problems and loss of power on Audi A3

Hi all, I am experiencing some problems with my Audi A3. I have noticed that the cold start time is not consistent, sometimes it takes longer than others. Also, when I am driving, the car loses power when accelerating. The engine light is also on. I have been told at the shop that I might have a severe problem with the engine. Has anyone experienced anything similar or have any suggestions on how to fix these problems? I would appreciate any help. Thank you.

Start by checking the fuel system, particularly the fuel filter and fuel pump. A clogged fuel filter or failing fuel pump can cause inconsistent start times and power loss. If you're not comfortable doing this yourself, it's best to have a professional inspect it. Let us know how it goes or if you have any further questions!
