my car has lost power..not too bad on flat, dead uphill?
 
                My Rover 45 diesel turbo has lost power.  If I am going uphill, I have to put on hazard lights as I slow right down.  On the flat in top gears I can get up to 70+ but hit a hill and I am way down again.  Disconnecting air flow meter did not help.  Has the turbo gone, how would I know?  Could one of the injectors be leaking..how would I know??  Does it have a catalitic converter, if so what does it do and could it be dead?  would I be ebst to get a diagnostic done?
