Replacement of Cabin Air Filter

Model: Mercedes Classe C W203 - Years 2000-2007
Part: Cabin air filter

People sensitive to pollen allergies should frequently replace this filter, as the cabin air filter purifies the air inside the cabin, preventing pollen and dust from entering. The filter is located in the engine compartment under the windshield. Obtain a cabin air filter of the same model identical to the original. To access the removal, rotate the three hooks of the cover about ¼ turn. Remove the cover by lifting it. After removing the filter cover, take out the filter from its housing by pulling it upwards carefully to avoid dust dispersal. Clean the housing from any dirt. Insert the new cartridge into the container, paying attention to the orientation, and close the cover with the hooks.
