hey mate, sorry to hear about your problem but without video it's going to be 'guess-diagnostic'
get the car inspected by the dealer where you bought the car (if that's the case with dealer) and tell them they gonna buy back..it will work I promise you ) |

If it's 3 clicks when you start that's normal. Had that checked out when I bought mine new. 3 clicks means all OK.

Don't know about clicking , that could be a number of things, but the feeling of loss power comes from the engine management system, V8 to V6 to help gas mileage. I don't like it but nothing you can do about it. Read about it in your owners manual.
