2013 Vauxhall Cascada loss of power

My car sometimes doesn’t respond when I put the accelerator down, especially in the lower gears and uphill. It’s an intermittent problem though and as yet two garages haven’t been able to locate the problem. I can literally have my foot to the floor and it will not respond. Once I’m going downhill, it seems to get better. The malfunction indicator light is also on intermittently but the car has been recently serviced and I’ve already spent about £700 trying to sort this problem. Any ideas gratefully received.

Hard to find intermittent faults . Could be the TPS ( throttle position sensor ) or plug connector , also known as accelerator pedal . May need fuel filter replaced . If the MIL was on , any stored fault codes should be able to be retrieved with capable diagnostic scanner for your vehicle
