How about your cat. Converter?

When the honeycomb got clog there is a "lack" of power

Because of the exhaust restriction.

You are losing the coolant/water somewhere. No hot air is due to the fact that there is no water in the heater core to make the air hot. This should be handled soon, overheating the engine can do serious and expensive damage
