Reduced power warning light?

Need help. anyone know what model code reader will give me the code number for a ***Reduced Power warning light***? I have a iCarsoft BM II and it won't read the error code. The icon on the dash is below and pic is off another car, not mine. Car is a 2012 R58 JCW and error code appeared after getting a tune loaded for catless downpipe, CAI and intercooler. Also, occasional severe exhaust smoke from tailpipe and above turbo. The car ran flawlessly before getting it tuned. I had the tune removed and put back to stock and now stuck with all these problems.

It might be a wild guess but I think your plugs are fouled. This can give a reduced power error and all the smoke your talking about probably fouled them.

I use Dashcommand. I’m guessing it could be boost pressure sensor or manifold pressure sensor. You’ll know more with the actual code from Dashcommand

If you don't have an OBD reader look up how to access the R56 hidden menu. Item 14 is diagnostic codes if I recall.
