Default Rough idle and Codes 175 & 172

Thanks for all your help with my transmission failure. Took it Dana Point Ca. AAMCO and the car runs great!
Now I am getting intermittent restricted performance light, very rough idle, when I scanned for codes, these came up: 175, 172, 1316, 101, and numerous misfire codes, along with EVAP, O2 sensor, Fuel, Catalyst, and O2 Heater.
Hoping it is simple like a dirty MAF or bad Lambda sensor? Any thoughts.

I used to get 175 and 172 codes, which was remedied by moving up to 94 octane on my xkr, though I suspect that was because of my SC boost increase through a smaller pulley which doesn't really help you.

I believe 1316 is a MAF code, that would also explain the restricted performance and rough idle. Disconnecting, cleaning & reassembly might help, or a replacement altogether.

Default rough idle

Check that the transmission mechanic hasn't deranged your O2 sensor cables, ie hooked the left cable to the right sensor, it is easily done, there was a post recently about it. I think they are the same colour, just to make life more difficult.

Cleaned the MAF and throttle throat, I found a small crack on the air intake support bracket!
New tank of Chevron premium and the Jaguar is again purring.
Thanks for everyone's help, I don't think you can own this type of car without the support of this forum.
