Have you removed your DPF (diesel particulate filter)? Your error message refers to something like that.

I know a clogged DPF will cause problems like you described, but that error message means the opposite to clogged.

How about a leak somewhere in the exhaust system, in that case a lack of back-pressure would be detected (and the car assuming it's coming from the DPF) and the car wouldn't perform as expected...

?
