 Volkswagen Passat - 03 1.9 Intermittent power loss. - Bromptonaut
Presumably the ECU is detecting a fault and putting the engine into limp mode. On restart, the fault, which is almost certainly transient, is not detected so engine runs at normal output.

What led you to look at air mass meter EGR etc, 'Likely cause' diagnosis or have you been able to get a fault code downloaded? Does the problem occur in an identifiable circumstance such as heavy acceleration or prolonged high speed running?
