Kia Ceed Diesel losing power

Coming home from work today, engine started loosing power & had to pull in, no respose to accelerater, eventually cut out. Turn key and engine starts straight away, drive away, plenty of power. About 8 km later, same again. Fuel filter issue or something else?

Sounds like limp mode, get it scanned, see what the code is.

I will say that a mates pro'ceed had similar issues, and I believe the fuel filter was at fault.

But get it scanned
