Intercoolers are known to split on them as well occasionally. And turbo actuator rods can sieze

take the 4x 15mm off the manifold and start it up and see if it revs up properly

Is there a loud diesel knock as well? They do suffer with the pump timing solenoids packing up, this causes lack of power also

It's not as bad as it sounds if it is that mate, you can change the solenoid with taking. the pump off

P0149 and P1564 are the codes you are looking for, tbh though, it's normally slightly later vans that suffer with that problem
