My Peugeot 406 HDI engine managment light has come on and now will not rev above 2000ish RPM. It idles fine and starts straight away though, any ideas?

Whereabouts in Kent are you Monty? I've got the diagnostics on my laptop.
Hi Im in ashford not sure how far that is from you? I can drive the car but not far or motorways as it wont do above 60mph I think its possibly the EGR Valve.

Thanks, I have managed to find someone local with diagnostics so getting it read tonight, hopefully its nothing to major as its done over 200k and is a bit shot if im honest, so not worth throwing much money at.
