If you have an obd scanner, check for error codesComment

I have had this before. I would start by checking the fuel filter for grey gunk, if this is what you have you need to treat the tank with a biocide.

Hi all, I agree with this quote as I had the same issue and it was the Plastic Fuel Strainer inside the tank. I found a link on this forum which had a photo and supplied this to my mechanic as I didn’t have any fault codes either, fuel filter had been replaced and the problem kept happening. $130 later in labour and the strainer was removed, cleaned and put back in - Problem Solved - Power returned to normal but I haven’t put a fuel “tank” additive in.Originally posted by Seigried View PostComment
