At a minimum, you need to post exact codes. Or we will just be guessing

P0305
P0401/0402
P0171

And the guesses would be P0305 Check/change spark plugs, wires and ignition coil.

P0401/0402 Clean EGR and check/change DPFE sensor

P0171 Check for broken/leaking hoses, gaskets. Spray carb cleaner while idling and if idle changes, you found the leak.

Edit. EGR system.

Check/Change the Differential Pressure Feedback EGR (DPFE) sensor. This sensor is also known as EGR Backpressure transducer and clean EGR
