Replacing the Cabin Air Filter

Model: Mercedes Vaneo MK 1 - Years 2001-2005
Part: Cabin air filter

This video explains how to replace the cabin air filter of a Mercedes Vaneo. The filter is located in the engine bay. First, remove the ventilation grille by unscrewing the seven screws that secure it. Move the wipers and lift the plastic cover (as indicated by the arrows) secured by two screws. At this point, you will have access to the filter. Remove the old one. Now insert a new one and then reverse all the previous steps. Remember that the air filter should be replaced every 15,000 miles or, alternatively, annually.
