you've most defiantly gone into limp mode. mine used to do when driving down the motorway at 65-70 then the slightest touch of the throttle the turbo would cut out.
used some turbo cleaner and touch wood it hasnt done it since  :lipsrsealed:
I often wonder why people never expect sarcastic comments from me - they're the only reason I speak...
