Hi, i have a 2.2 d vectra c, i have a problem that i have only encountered while motorway driving, when at a speed between 50 - 65 and accelerate to build speed then car will go into limp mode and a great loss of power, until i turn off the engine and start again and the problem is gone. I mainly happens in 5th gear. I can accelerate hard in low gears and no problem at all, i have checked all pipes incase of a split (thought i might be losing pressure from the turbo)? And cant see anything, this problem is becoming very annoying!
