Most likely it is either a fuel delivery problem (not getting the fuel you need into the pistons) or an ignition system problem (the plugs aren't sparking or aren't sparking at the right time). Sometimes it is just a bad batch of fuel that put a little bubble into your fuel line that needs to get worked out. Another possibility Could be the gas line filter clogged that needs to be checked and cleaned or may be replaced if its worn out.
Another possibility could be problem with cables and spark plugs-the electricity is shorting out to the engine before getting to some of the plugs. Time to change the plugs and cables. And the other option could be the timing belt.The belt is slipping or its cracked/broken or worn out.It has to be checked. Thanks. Keep updated for any more query.

The ECT button (which stands for "Electronically Controlled Transmission")
changes the shift points for the automatic transmission. When engaged,
the transmission shifts later, allowing the engine to get to a higher
power level and accelerate faster. Gas mileage is usually reduced in
this mode. Use it when you need to get up to speed faster; for example,
to merge into fast moving traffic. The normal position for this switch
is OFF.

It means that the egr valve is working, the problem is a very common one, it's the egr modulator valve and to some extent the vacuum switching valve(VSV) for the egr valve, the modulator is attached to the egr valve, remove it and if air can pass from the bottom port through it is defective, in that case replace it and see if it takes care of the problem, if the valve is ok the egr
vsv should be replaced.

a code stored in the computer will tell you what system triggered the check engine light.
The most common is an o2 sensor or evap code set off by a loose or faulty gas cap.after the vehicle is started about 50 times with no fault the light will go out.You can disconnect the battery for 1 minute and reset the computer,and unless the fault is still there,the check engine light will not come back on.Before you do this make sure you have the radio code handy,disconnecting the battery will lock out the radio on most new vehicles.

Hell, and welocme to FixYa!

The remote comes apart, the front half detatchs from the back half, a small screwdriver is all you need.

The battery is easily removed once the case of the fob is open.

There is no need for any reprogramming once the battery is changed; the computer remembers the frequency of the transmitter.

I am afraid not the dash bleeps if you have left the lights on, indicating you have left them on and to turn them off.
Otherwise the lights will stay on and rapidly drain the battery.
