Default Limp home mode on 2.2.diesel X type

My Xtype went into limp home mode after approx 80,000Km. When I switched the engine off and restarted about 20 seconds later (after the guages had re-settled) the engine ran fine but the problem kept coming back again after a few Kms.The dealer fitted a new turbo and the problem disapeared. At approx 120,000Km the problem started again, this time I had to fork out for a new turbo. again after about 20,000Kms the problem came back. The dealership had the car for 3 weeks and apparently even asked Jaguar U.K. what the problem was. This has been re-curring ever since and I have just had to put up with the problem. Does anyone have any ideas as I love this car and would prefer to keep it, but without this problem. Thanks in advance, Chris.
