Topic moved - hopefully the Mk2 section is the right one?

The loss of power is called 'limp-home mode'. The car deliberately reduces power to prevent damage.

 

The vast majority of time this relates to the turbo.

 

Now you have the warning light on the dash there will be a fault code stored in the car's memory. Reading this code using VCDS will allow you to pinpoint the fault.
