10 days ago drove about70 miles through some horrendous rain on the way home from the football, the car misfired/stuttered a few times when accelerating. Next day had a 25 mile trip to do and car drove fine until out on the motorway, got up to 60-65 then when trying to accelerate a little to overtake....no power I struggled on as the car slowed o the slightest incline, 50 mile an hour in a 70 is not funny.Finally made it back to town and all of a sudden the power came back. I haven't had time till today to use the car again so took it out this morning and it seemed fine with only a slight whistle when accelerating Then the check engine light came on, I put a code reader on it and got a p1103 code MAF. So I cleared the code and opened up the air filter box to find

That's what you get from hitting deep pudles too fast. Normal driving in rain won't do that.

Wasn't driving too fast. The rain was torrential for about 40 miles then slightly less torrential for the rest of the journey.
