E90 power loss

I put my 318i on the code machine after loosing power between 2 and 3 thousand revs, the code I got of the machine that was plugged in was P00BD on a 'EOBD 2' setting if this means anything to anyone! the code brought up on google:

Description
Mass or Volume Air Flow "A" Circuit Range/Performance - Air Flow Too High

Check the air box and the hose connected to it. You may have a leak somewhere around the intake hoses.

How would I check it? Could it be sucking in too much air?

based on searches I did on google, open up the air box and close it again. Check the hoses, make sure all connections are tight and not letting air out.

If it were me, Id disconnect everything, clean it all up, put some plastic dressing to make it look nice, and put it back together. Did just that when I replaced the sparks/coils, and I ended up with a nice looking engine
