That's a lot of money.

If the car starts, let it idle and start checking for vacuum leaks around the intake manifold. Even a small leak will cause the engine to run rich and foul the plugs. You should be able to hear a large leak.

Check the DTC boxes, A2 and A6, for codes. Write them down and clear them. Remember, codes are a guide to what is wrong, not necessarily the problem.

If there are oil leaks, find out where they are coming from. A clogged PVC system will create problems.

How many miles on this POS? :)
My wife says we have too many cars already, but I beg to differ.
