Would reduced engine output produce an error code?

Just wondering if a BMW diagnostics system would show an error code if the engine was producing less than expected power?
 
I don't know but I doubt it because it's not a parameter that could be measured directly by a sensor. Other fault codes could indicate a loss of power though.
 
As Half Colin says, if there's a loss of power there's probably a reason why - which a trouble code is more likely to be produced for.
