Loss of power - limp mode

Hi
Stuck in hilly Dorset with a car which losses power after a climb.

Started yesterday towing my caravan.
No error codes which I can read.

Start the car and drives fine, then after a climb drops power.

No noticeable noises-

Is there varying limp modes?

Any easy checks, turbo hoses?
Inter cooler.

Thanks

Weird that there are no error codes. I would have thought that if it has decided to go into limp mode, then that is an ECU-driven process and only done in response to an error code from a sensor. If it was a fuel starvation issue or even a temperature or boost pressure issue then surely this should show a code? When did it last get treated to a new fuel filter?

EDIT: Just remembered that you did a Bluespark and EGR-blanking job, so I guess all bets are off for normal issues until you rule out something computer related around the Bluespark module. 2005 D3 2.7 Auto

Thanks for the reply
It had the monster 10year service the other month, so the fuel fitter should have been done then, perhaps I need to check with the garage.
