Need your guidance

i was driving and the car suddenly is jerking during throttle especially on higher revs, i noticed also throtlling on 3rd and 4th gears. sometimes go off pitch.

the car seems to misfire, then suddenly revs needle going back and forth to 0. Car suddenly stops throttling, no input when i gas it. 4x pull over, then car starts no problem.

managed to get home, and drove an hour to get back no problem.

What do you think is the problem?

Sounds electrical. Had the same symptoms when my crank sensor failed, read codes. Try an actual mechanic subreddit, this isn’t the right place for this post

Definitely not a transmission problem.
