Peugeot 307 HDI Antipollution Fault

lalek

I just bought Peugeot 307 2.0 HDI 90hp year 2003 with 130.000kms on the board. The car was serviced just before i bought it on a regular service (Service C by some Peugeot standards) and everything was ok. But just after 50km after i had it in my possession when I started the engine Antipollution fault message appeared and the car lost power and was not going as it used to: didn't go over 110km/h and max round 2000-2500rpm. I was on open road so I stopped at the first town at the official Peugeot service that was closing, the guys quickly opened the hood, opened one thing that was on top, put the gas on max and black smoke came off the exhaust. After that the car was going normal and the light on the board went off after 100kms. I remembered that the guy who sold the car to me said it might choke up if i drive it on empty tank, so i guessed that is what happened, Because i filed the tank just 20km before this happened, and it was almost empty when he sold it to me. So i went yesterday to the official service in my home town to make detail cleaning , they said they will put it on computer and suddenly, they said the car is stalking often so they presume that its some thins in the chamber they need to replace, cant remember the name, but they said that they are 4, each costing around 500 eur), that something was not opening in 2ms like it should... Are they trying to rip me off?? The car is running great, and you can feel the turbo kicking in when you drive it. Between the mechanics in the first town,and my home town i was going 130km/h on uphil in 4th gear, and running 150-160km/h on highway, passed over 500km and didnt feel the engine stalking or anything. What should i do?? Thanks
