Answerthe cylnoid or has a blown head gasket or maybe overheatsThere is no such thing as cylnoid to answer the question. Get diagnostics run and look for a pattern in the codes. Likely you have an intermittent sensor or a leak in vacuum pressure that needs to be addressed. More likely a fuel delivery problem, check your fuel pump.
Could be EGR valve sticking open or dirty at an idling condition or hesitates when accelerating.
How does it hesitate? does it shake or seem as if it dont have a lot of power?
When your vehicle hesitates or loses power when accelerating from a stop, it could be for several reasons. You may have a transmission problem, or your fuel pump could be wearing out.
it could have a bad air filter or the fuel is clogged some where. or the batt could be going bad.
Yes mine did same thing it was the crankshaft sensor located on the firewall side of the engin.

Yes, it could be dirty injectors causing this problem. It could also be an issue in the fuel line, fuel pump or fuel filter.
