Engine Air Filter Replacement

Model: Mercedes Glk MK 1 - Years 2008-2015
Part: Air filter

To replace the engine air filter, first remove the plastic cover located directly above the engine. Unscrew the fastening screws of the air filter housing cover (air box), which is attached to the engine management unit. Once the cover is lifted, extract the old filter, removing any dirt residue to prevent it from entering the intake duct, and insert the new one. Refit the cover, ensuring the gasket adheres correctly, and tighten the respective fastening screws.
