Default Loss of Power

Hi, Just wondering if anyone can help before i go to a garage and get my eyeballs ripped out.

I have a Volvo C30, 2.0l TDCI 59 Plate R Design.

Basically, I was driving 80mph on the motorway a few days ago and i went to put my foot on the accelarator to speed up but there was no power there what so ever. It just would not go past 80odd mph.

Then i slowed down to a stop at the roundabout and when i pulled away it was as if the turbo wasn't working. It struggled to reach 40mph. I then parked up and turned the engine off. I gave it 20 mins and when i started it back up it was normal again with full power.


I know its due a service and it is going in on Wed this week but to me it felt like it was a problem with the turbo.
Just wondering if anyone can help so i can at least go to the garage with a bit of knowledge.
Cheers
