2003 3.2 Pajero no power and even smoke

[PierresPajero]

Hi guys

My new pajero is giving me tough time. We went for a little drive up paarl mountain. I replaced the vacuum solenoids for the front diff last week so just wanted to check that. At least that seems sorted.

So on our way down I had her in 4x4 and was in manual mode and testing the cars engen braking in first gear. No crazy incline.

As soon as I came back on the tar I switched her back into RWD and flipped back to auto. The car pulled well, like usual and all was good.

Then, after a km or two the engen had almost no power, struggling to reach 60km/h. There was even some smoke coming out of the exhaust.

The car idles perfectly.

Any ideas would be great.

Loss if vacuum then the turbo actuator cannot work so there is no boost?
