I've read this forum a lot before getting my ds3 and I'm sure I read that this can happen when the DPF (diesel particle filter - i think) is clogging up. Are you driving about town or on motorway most of the time? The engine seemingly needs to get above 40 mph for a good 10 mins or so to heat up enough to burn off the particles blocking the filter. If this doesn't happen, no burn off and clogged filter resulting in what your experiencing.
As I read this, I make sure I am sitting just above 40 in 40 limits lol. not that I encourage speeding ofc (we have police men on here ). I know the response about it being ridiculous not being able to only drive around town without expecting problems and I agree. Just pointing out that this is a known issue and you may need the filter replacing if it doesn't ease off.
