The air filter looks brand new,i haven't checked the fuel filter yet but the car does have a full service history so i am expecting it to be good.
Regarding limp mode there is no warning lights on and i dont know if this makes a difference but i am able to reach much higher rpm when not going up a steep hill(in my last less powerful car i able to go up the hill in 4th)
Thanks

Thanks for your input
I am currently investigating fuel problems and i will be changing my fuel filter as soon as the engine cools down.
Some more symptoms:when the car is cold in the morning it starts ok but when i try to move it stalls.
I will keep you informed of my progress

I had the same problem earlier this year with my C5, everyhing was pointing at a fault with the turbo system and mainly to the turbo boost pressure solenoid! After lenghthy investigation i found it to be the air flow meter, an easy way for you to check this is start the car and whilst it is running disconnect the air flow meter, drive the car and see if it drives as it should if it does then a new meter is req. If you disconnect the meter with the engine stopped it will still be the same sluggish self as before. Good luck, i hope this works for you.
