Peugeot 406 HDi power loss?

I have a 2002 Peugeot 406 HDi GLX. Up until recently, it has been driving fine. It has always been punchy, responsive and quick... About a week ago, I have noticed a reduction in the performance; it accelerates, but not as well as it used to, infact it feels like I'm towing a trailer or a caravan ! It gets upto 80 - 90 mph, and sits there comfortably, but seems to take an age to do so. I've not noticed any reduction in fuel economy, lumpy running, black smoke ( the general things you associate with injector problems ) and the car appears to run fine, its just this 'diminished' performance that's puzzling me. Can anyone help ??

I also have a 406 HDi on an X plate. I had the same problems with acceleration and have just recently disconnected the lead attached to the air flow meter. Touch wood it seems to have cured the problem.

Not sure if it is ok to run the car for a long period with the lead disconnected though. I suspect I will have to replace the air flow meter next.
