Lost engine power.. I NEED HELP!!
Hi guys, yesterday I was driving on the A127 normally at 50 mp hours when suddenly I accelerate about 90 mp hours the engine lost power and came out the worning light check the engine! I stopped the car in a BP station and waited 10 min.. Water and Oil was fine! I managed to continue my journey driving no more than 50 mph.. So what's the problem? Someone can help me please.

Were you really doing 90 mps hour? Did any speed cameras photograph you... (or any fuzz read your post...)

I'm sure he merely accelerated briskly to merge with traffic and it FELT like 90 mph, but acceleration was arrested at the posted speed limit.... officer.

i agree with glen if your car is deisel and reg b4 02 plate an obd scanner will not work it has to be some with t4 diagnostics as glen says something has thrown the car into limp mode get the codes off the scanner then go from there rgds mark

Not strictly true... I have a generic Blutooth OBD reader and it works fine on my Cowley diesel but oddly my friends 03 diesel wont talk to it?

Which engine is this? Check for blocked or wet air filter, collapsed Shannon tube (air supply pipe to engine), bloked fuel filter. Any of these will allow slower speed but choke (or starve) the engine at higher speeds. I've read that some (Rover/Land Rover) diesels can limit the revs too. Turbo to engine pipes can split (losing boost).
EDIT- Just spotted that you continued at 50mph. Was that because it wouldn't do more than 50 ???
