First, the vehicle is still under 100% factory warranty, so I would recommend having a dealer look at it. It could be many things causing the problem. Fuel pressure may drop as it warms up, there could be a vacuum leak, there could be problems with the ignition system.

I took it up to them but they said no fault codes were coming up so ther was nothing they could really do. And when its runs smooth its responsive but when it gets warm its like when it in first gear n I go to pull away I have to give it a bit more gas
