I drive a 2006 GT TDI and yesterday on the motorway the car lost power refusing to reach over 2000 revs. When i pulled into the services and re started, the fault cleared but has been intermitant since.

Today, the exhaust warning light has come on with the emissions warning message coming up.

It's booked into the garage for sat but wondered if anyine had an idea what it could be and what the likely costs could be. Only had the car 2 months, out of warranty now but have an extendded warranty which i bought with the car.
