John it could be a number of things but we really need to know your car details to give any you good info to go armed with. They should stick it onto their diagnosis kit and download any fault codes once you've suggested to them what the problem could be.

 

Sorry ...just noticed your sig

 

Is it going into limp mode? Could be the turbo positive deviation problem where the boost pressure goes beyond its limits due to either a sticky VNT actuator or the turbo vanes need a good clean. There are other reasons that will cause the car to go into limp mode and no doubt others will point you in the right direction.
