This happens when the DPFE control valve goes bad, which is usually because of a catalytic converter that is starting to clog up. Does the engine seem to have full power or is it low? This would be the cause of the low engine power problem as well.

Here is a guide to help confirm the cat failure:

Here is the location of the sensor and how to change it out. Check out the images (below). Please let us know what happens.
