I was on my way to the lake last weekend and I lost all forward momentum. The turbo went to zero and I pressed it to the floor. I pulled over and shut it off for a few minutes. Restarted fine and had good power. Continued to the lake and after about 150 miles, I lost turbo and power again. Again I pulled over, shut down for a while and then restarted fine. Monday I took it to Ford and it had thrown a code of 088. They had TSB 12-7-7 that said to reprogram my computer. It fixed it plus it runs better than it has for a long time. My unloaded highway mileage went from 16 to 19 on the lie-o-meter. Can't wait to see if my mpg goes up towing. Right now, I'm lucky if I get 9! I'll let you know.

Hope you let us know, when they reprogramed mine it went from 16 to 12MPG. Good Luck.
