Default Technical advice, please help!

My Volkswagon golf 01' mark 4 went in for MOT 2 weeks ago, had to get new discs and brakes replaced on the back. Then 5 days later my car started to struggle and the exhaust emmision light came on. Put it back into the same garage and they supposdly fixed it. They replaced the coils on the engine and the spark plugs. The car came out with another problem, pulls back then forward every so often when acclerating. Went back into the garage and they told me I needed a service. They told me it was then fixed, but that was a lie as the problem hasnt gone. Put the car back in again and they tested it and said there was no problem but put fuel treatment in it and said this should help. it hasnt!!! It is worse than ever. This garage are at it and I need help, I have spent a total of £560 to this garage. Does anyone have any suggestions on what the problem may be ? Please help ?

well you're looking at bad O2 sensors, dirty fuel injectors, foul plugs, or MAF sensor. If there's an engine light download the fault and will tell you how to fix it.
