Depends what air filter? Where have you located it? Got a picture?

How high/low is it? Can it get a clear feed of cold air? There's nothing covering it or blocking it is there? Sounds like it may not be getting enough air or the air is far too warm

How high/low is the air filter in the engine bay. Be much easier to see if you post a photo :)

Check your throttle body for blockAges or dirt. Give it a good clean

I've just took my nap sensor off and throttle body cleaned them. There was oil on my map sensor and it's worse now

Disconnect the battery (if you've got your radio code) for 30 mins. Let the ECU clear itself as if the map sensor had oil on it.(I'm guessing from a K&N filter?) It'll have messed with the mixture ratios

Either the ECU has adjusted the mixture or the oil that was present has gone! Good result either way :)
