2002 C240 Air Cleaner Replacement
Folks,
Now that my C240 is off warranty, I want to do most A and B service myself, as I did with my 1998 ML320. However, even after reviewing posts back to 2003, I can't find out how to remove the engine cover to get at the air cleaner. Any ideas?

Simply put...in your car, the air cleaner box is integrated into the plastic cover that sits on top of the engine.
There are two pieces. A smaller "front" piece and the "main" piece.
Lift up. Rock a bit if needed.
Turn the main piece up-side down. You will know what screws to undo. Torx, I believe they are.
Open it up, replace two air filters. Put everything back in.
THERE IS NO DOUBT THAT K&N FILTERS ARE THE BEST. GO TO AUTOZONE OR ADVANCE AUTO TO ORDER THEM. IF WORRY IS IN YOUR BLOOD, BUY OEM FILTERS FROM YOUR CHARMING LOCAL MB DEALER.
