Lack of Power Below 2000 rpm

Recently had lack of power - flat below 2000rpm. Just happend half way through journey. Power is flat until 2000 rpm then goes normally. Sympoms like air filter blocked. Checked this and is ok. No fault shown on dash. Big Cry

Is is possible that the airflow sensor in air intake is gone without showing a fault on the dash. Next trying disconnecting battery for a few seconds to see if it reboots without fault. Sheep

Grateful for an advice.

Maybe the EGR valve/s

Just be careful that the EGR valves don't go on you giving total loss of power at an inconvenient moment. Mine failed infront of a fast approaching lorry.

May be in no way related, but I had no warning at all until after the failure. (Enging off and on again) when rather helpfully the engine management light woke up and joined the show . . . . "To finish first, one first has to finish ...."

Same symptoms as mine, now waiting for EGR valve to be fitted next week. At least there now seems to be a stock of EGR valves available to dealers.

Anyone know how to test these. Is there a simple resistance test I can do by disconnecting the ERG valve? I'm assuming as no fault is reported on the dash, then its not reported on the engine diagnostics computer?
