Hoping to get to the bottom of a problem I have.

ford focus 2012 1.6 tdci econetic 

had a loss in power and engine malfunction message & EML. Switch of engine and  back on problem went. took to the garage and they did a software update. Problem fully disappeared.

2 months later same problem returns, all the same symptoms etc. Back to the garage, had a new water cooled EGR & Air mass flow sensor. Problem fully disappeard.

2-3 months later (now) same problem has returned but without the EML & is more persistent in terms of switching off the ingnition and back on. Engine malfunction message persistent. 

If it makes any difference I’ve had no more than 44MPG (Average) on the motorway and 35-41MPG round town. 

If anyone has any advice or knows who can fix it it would be great to speak with you.
