VW golf MK4 2.0, Runs for about 5 minutes, loses power and jerks

[Nicholas Obstoj]

Hey, so my VW has been playing up on me lately, recently I was driving it normal and the engine just lost power and when I stepped on the gas pedal I lost more and more power, after stopping I restarted the car and it worked perfectly again with no issues, then after driving for another 5 mins the same issue, mechanic thought it was the MAF sensor as the air temperature was very high when it lost power, however this was not the case. I’m a bit lost and so is the mechanic any ideas
Note I put 10w 40 oil in it prior then drove about 50km then it happened
