You really need to get the fault code read. A lot of modern engines have a "limp home" mode where virtually all power is cut when certain faults are detected. A D3 Hawkeye or similar would tell you, or if still under warranty as you imply ge the dealer to sort it for you!
Fookin' scary when it happens ton up in lane 3 though!!!
