Thanks for the heads up there mate. The warning light has disappeared and the performance has returned to normal. Been travelling around in it and its fine. So for now, I will leave it I think - if it occurs again I'll take it to get the error code checked.

I had this. Only happened sometimes but this was the build up to it happening badly, at a time i needed the power which was when i pulled out of a side road in to fast traffic, it died and crawled. I'm no mechanic but i would say your EGR valve is clogging up pal. Look at the HOW 2 guide for how to resolve or get it in under warranty or whatever, Get Tech 2 hooked up to it and if it is the EGR valve it'll tell 'em

good luck

Do a pedal test, can do it yourself for free

Doesn't work on all models, doesn't work on mine as I tried it
