Mercedes-Benz Air Filters

All About Mercedes-Benz Air Filters

Most Mercedes-Benz cars and SUVs have two types of air filters -- one for their engines and one for their cabins. Both capture airborne contaminants, before they can get into engine parts and the heater and air conditioning. Unfortunately, sooner or later, the pollutants that collect can restrict airflow through both of them -- that is, if they don't otherwise degrade from age. When either of these things happens, engine problems and car HVAC malfunctions follow.

How to Tell the Air Filters in a Mercedes-Benz Need Replacing

Look for the signs it's time. They include a lit Check Engine light on the dashboard, a dirty, blocked, or worn-out filter, and unclean smells in the cabin. Others range from unusual engine noises and misfires to loss of engine power, weak throttle response and acceleration, and worsening fuel economy. You may even experience emissions increases.

See any, and you should replace the filters sooner rather than later. Otherwise, they need changing regularly, about every 12,000 to 15,000 miles, or every 30,000 miles at most. There are clear benefits to replacement sooner, namely, maintaining fuel efficiency, emissions control, and helping your engine last longer. Review your owner's manual for more details.
