Mass airflow sensor, oxygen sensor, EGR stuck open, clogged catalytic converter, rock hit part of the exhaust and pinched it closed. Check engine light? get codes. Those are my closest guesses without looking at it. Get a Haynes or a Chilton, everyone should own one for a car that isn't in warranty.
