An atypical malfunction occurs in the 6th gear, characterised by a brief interruption followed by the display of the message "service vehicle soon".

Anticipating the arrival of a code reader, but wanted to inquire here first in case others have had a like problem.

Operating a vehicle on the highway Approximately 2 days ago, while driving at a speed of around 70 miles per hour, I pressed the accelerator pedal to overtake another vehicle. However, I had a little delay in acceleration and the message "service vehicle soon" appeared. Despite this, the car eventually accelerated normally, although I did feel a tiny decrease in power. I continued driving home without encountering any more issues. Upon starting the automobile yesterday, the warning message "service vehicle soon" immediately appeared. Completed a brief trip without any issues.
This morning, I started the vehicle without any warning signs. During my commute to work, which lasted around 30 minutes, I deliberately maintained a speed of 2800 rpm in third gear, as I believed that the automobile may benefit from a thorough cleaning. Throughout the journey, no caution indicators were shown.
While driving home, I maintained a regular speed until I decided to accelerate and overtake another car at around 70 miles per hour in 6th gear. At that moment, I experienced a brief halt followed by the appearance of a warning message stating "service vehicle soon".
Does anybody possess any notion about its nature?
As previously said, I am now awaiting the arrival of the opcom code reader in order to do a more in-depth analysis.

Thank you.

We really appreciate receiving a comprehensive amount of information.For instance, The information required includes the year of the vehicle, the kind of gasoline it uses, and the power output of its engine.
You understand the concept.
However, in the absence of codes, the process becomes a game of identifying the defect by trial and error.
If it is prior to 2014, please await the operational command (opcom).
Acknowledged, my friend!

At one point, I had a comparable item on my previous property's introduction. When we began our journey back home from the south of France, the issue occurred a few times while accelerating more forcefully. It was discovered that the turbo pipe had a rupture due to the blockage of the dpf, resulting in the pressure causing the pipe to burst. Eventually, the vehicle entered a state of complete limp mode. However, previous to that, the issue was intermittent, with greater acceleration causing the split in the pipe to expand more than during less aggressive acceleration.

Although it may not be certain, it is worth verifying.

Apologies, the vehicle in question is a 2.0 diesel estate from the 2011 model year. Today, I received the Opcom delivery. However, I had difficulties throughout the installation process as it repeatedly displayed problems. Consequently, I have reached out to Opcom via email, seeking assistance.
Despite its limited functionality, it successfully performs simple tasks such as scanning trouble codes. Upon seeing error code P2282-52, I proceeded to inspect the boost pipe as suggested. Although my visibility was limited, I saw significant moisture accumulation on the pipe. Consequently, I have placed an order for a replacement pipe and will assess its effectiveness once it arrives.
I intended to instruct Opcom to do a force regeneration, but because it has not completely loaded, it is now preventing me from doing so. I will wait and observe the situation.

Thank you one again

Until the hose is replaced, you will be unable to do a forced regeneration.
The code indicates a lower intercooler hose problem, which is a well-documented issue.

I have successfully installed and configured Vagcom and Forscan on my Windows 7 Pro operating system. However, I am unsure why this particular issue is occurring. I received a response from them stating that they would investigate the matter tomorrow.
