Stalling while idling

Greetings, I have a problem with my 2010 VW Golf (gasoline engine, 168412 km run). I have recently noticed some symptoms: black smoke when accelerating, check engine light comes on, engine power decreases, unstable running engine, jerking when accelerating, car won't start, poor fuel economy, car dies at idle and shakes when doing so. I suspect it could be an ignition coil problem or misfires have been detected. Do any of you have experience with this problem or have a tip on which mechanic is well versed in such problems? Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks in advance!
