Thank you for your answer. Read around a lot, tried to check hoses. Buuut, there is one problem, we have -25 degrees C. I will try to find a garage, but I still have 30km to drive at forrest road. So I don't feel secure to leave my home with a car in this shape.

The first one id check is the tps signal.

Also check the maf sensor. These can cause weired problems too
