Checked your oil then?
Have you got a code reader? If so whats the code?

Ooooh with all the hot weather it'll more than likely be p2002 catalyst efficiency below threshold (blocked dpf) or p0400 egr recirculation, been doing loads this week

If its the egr it can be stripped and cleaned, the dpf is the expensive bit, sometimes they can be manually regenerated but without knowing the codes it's hard to say. How far from Manchester are u?
