Exclamation How to change the air filters on a 2007 Mercedes C230 sport?

I see 2 intake manifolds and at the end of each manifold I see the housing for the air filters. I can NOT remove the engine cover in order to get to the filters. Does anyone know to remove the cover? has anyone done it so that he/she can walk me through it?

Thanks

I unfortunately dont have a picture to post to show you and I will probably just confuse you with directions about black plastic covers since there are 100 of them under there. Post a picture of your engine bay with the hood up and I will point out what and where for you to change both your cabin and air filters.

In a nutshell, the cabin filter is in the back corner against the fender and firewall. It is in a black plastic housing and is held in place by two metal clips. The air filter in underneath a black plastic cover on the top front of your engine where the big black air hose runs into the engine from the front of the car. That requires the removal of several screws to remove the top off that black plastic cover to reveal the air filter underneath it.

The engine cover comes straight of of the engine by lifting up on it. You then flip the engine cover over and there will be 2 cases with a filter in each one held together by 4 screws. They are either t20 or t25 torx drive. I can e-mail you illustrated instructions if you send me you e-mail address.
