Ford Mondeo lost power

I recently got all the filters changed and car started to splutter and put out black. I changed air flow meter but no change so I disconnected air flow meter and black smoke stopped but car is now in get home safe mode. Any ideas would be welcome.

Turbo bearing oil seals or valve stem oil seals or something affected by the filter change. Did they unwrap the filters before putting them in?
