[x300] Sensor Problems?

I experience some problems after replacing air filter. May
be I broken something, but problems started after replacing
filter.

While driving x308 supercharged, ‘‘Restricted Performance’’
message is displayed (it happens many times per day now),
and temperature gauge moves to the bottom immediately.
Needless to say, car stops accelerating and drives like a
piece of crap. After restarting engine, climate control
indicator just displays message ‘‘Err’’ and starts beeping.
Another interesting thing - this message goes away if I
change gear from ‘‘D’’ to ‘‘R’’, and then back to ‘‘D’’.

Sometimes, when I stop car and engine is running idle,
‘‘Engine Stalled’’ message is displayed and engine gets
turned off.

I think it may be related to some sensors, but not very
sure. Any ideas?–

Perhaps when changing the filter, you disconnected the MAF or broke
a wire?–

It’s possible I broke the wire, I believe. I remember I was
‘‘playing hard’’ when replacing filter. But I didn’t
disconnect anything.

Sorry for dumb question, but where MAF is located exactly?
I have x308 for 3 weeks only and have 0 experience about
this car, and it was imported from Germany, so service
manual is written in language I could not understand.–
