Occasionally when i initially start the car the glow plug warning light remains on and flashes. The car then has limited power, it doesn't jump or misfire it just has limited acceleration. To cure the problem i pull over, turn off the engine, re-start and the problem is cured until the next time, usually about a week or so. Any ideas?

You will need to get it scanned and see what codes show .
