Is this a Mk2 or Mk3 Carens? 2006 is the changeover year.

It could be something as simple as fuel starvation but I would not want to comment too much over the internet as it could be so many things!

Try draining diesel filter to remove water.
If it helps but returns soon after keep draining until tank nearly empty. Then empty tank Replace fuel filter and seek dry diesel
fuel .
Old fashioned diesels had large clear water Seperator . If you can fit one before your filter this will help.
New cars are suffering with same problems Coarser filters used to be used . New finer filters are better for Injectors but the water causes stoppage and or bad hesitation.
