Air filter replacement for Mercedes Class A W169

Model: Mercedes Classe A W169 - Years 2004-2012
Part: Air filter

The periodic replacement of the air filter that feeds the injection system of the Mercedes Class A is necessary to ensure a constant and clean airflow. To change it, we open the hood of the engine compartment, we will find the filter box in the center of the housing. Using a screwdriver with a torx t20 tip, we unscrew the two screws that secure the cover. We rotate the cover, remove the plastic frame housing the filter element and place it on a work surface. We remove the old filter and replace it with a new one by inserting it into the frame, put it back in its place, close the cover, and secure it with the two screws.
