Power problems and high consumption in Renault Megane Diesel

I own a 2003 Renault Megane with a diesel engine and 209,000 km on the odometer, and I'm experiencing a loss of engine power. Why is it not accelerating and has high fuel consumption? What could be causing these problems and what solutions would you recommend?

Start by checking the air filter to ensure it's not clogged, as this can restrict airflow and affect engine performance. If the filter is dirty, replace it and see if there's an improvement. Let me know how it goes or if you have any further questions!

I changed all the filters and it still doesn't pull/work.

Next, inspect the turbocharger for any signs of damage or leaks in the hoses and connections, as a malfunctioning turbo can lead to power loss and increased fuel consumption. If you're unsure, it might be best to have a mechanic take a look. Let me know if you find anything or if you have more questions!
