Mercedes, and other manufacturers for that matter, routinely change part numbers for various and sundry reasons....new manufacturer/supplier to them, new design gets new number to tell it from old stock, etc.

I think the question behind your question is how can you be sure that the filter, part, whatever is the most current and correct one for your car. The best way is to sign up at Mercedes EPC(Electronic Parts Catalog) at
