Hello and Welcome.

So try the paperclip test and see if it throws any codes at you, here is the link.
http://www.omegaowners.com/forum/YaBB.pl?num=1189022687
if you do get any codes post them here and we can help you solve them.
Is or does your eml ( engine light ( looks like a wierd orange helicopter)) come on at all?
have you checked the plug wells for oil? ( not to sure with the 4cyl but worth a try.)
it is normal though that if you take your foot of the gas that nothing happens as you are then coasting.
but dont forget your car is a heavy one with nearly 1,7 tons (1700 kg) and the engine is only a baby for that weight, so it has to work overtime all the time.
Try the test and lets know if there is anything :y
