It sounds sensor related. TPS maybe? It's guess work. I would get it on a diagnostics. Best go to Pug / Cit and expect to be charged 1/2 hours labour.

Shouldn't be mate. If the filter is off, you would just have a slightly better air flow. But the K&N shouldn't be restricting the air flow in the first place, so taking it off, should not make any difference to performance. Obviously it's not ideal to have it off though!
Let us know how things develop...
