So he gut the Exhaust and the particle filter and removed the insides. Now every time I get into the car, it has power for the 1st 10min of take off then pops "Particle Filter Malfunction Error", Power gone again, it's driva'ble but only up to around 120km/h. He tell me that I need to take the car to the car tuning people to fix that, for another R6000 (South African Rands), man this sucks as I already spent a lot on the Turbo. Any advice on this!

Sounds like some hack mechanics (and owner) are just destroying this car.....
You could have had the DPF cleaned, instead of destroyed. Is this one of those mechanics that works out of a cardboard box? I'm going to guess you chose him since he was the cheapest...not because he was the best shop you could find.
R6000 is USD425.
