After a few miles i lose power (2004 T5 1.9 85hp) when this happens i get major engine shudder if i try accelerate / maintain speed. Turning ignition off resets it for a minute or so but getting worse.

No lights or codes coming up. Disconnect battery for a day and it drives better than ever until engine is warm and power loss resumes.

Other not related (but could be) issues;
Theres some mayo in the water none in the oil.
Oil looks v black given its not done that much.
Electrical issues after rain, wipers operate by themselves when in reverse gear. Indicators beep horn, horn flashes hazards.
Hazards turn on at the slightest bump in the road and upon opening any door. Opening and closing drivers door turns them off!
Top left central brake light red cover fell off so probably getting water issues there now too!
