It could be anything from a long list of possibilities and the lack of power may be it has gone in to limp mode as a result. Switching the ignition on/off a few times may clear the fault temporarily. Best option is to have the fault codes read and this should point you in the right direction. A fault code reader is cheaper to buy than to pay for a garage to read them for you unless it is part of the fix cost. You could though as a first step look under the bonnet for any loose wiring connectors, air leaks, check if the air mass meter is clean, check the service history for air filter/spark plug, etc replacements - anything that has an effect on the engine performance/efficiency.
