E550 4.6TT air filters?
I need to replace the air filters in my 2012 E550 (TT engine). I went to Advance Auto, they have the wrong parts listed for 2012, oil and air filters they sold me were wrong, both Mann brand (which is the OE provider to MB). I look up the 2013 model, and they have different part numbers listed for both.
My question is that the correct part is Mann C3397. I can't find any hard info whether there are 2 filters in this box, or if I need to order 2. They are kind of pricey, so if I had to order 2, then I would probably spend the extra for K&N washable filters. The incorrect part they sold me actually had 2 filters in 1 box, for roughly the same price range. If anyone has purchased these, I would appreciate the correct info.

As suggested providing VIN would be best, EPC:

It's really a simple question, not requiring VIN. The question is whether anyone has bought the Mann filter part C3397, and if it has both filters in one box, or if I should order 2. I'm aware that my car has 2 air filters like most MB V8 in the last decade or so.

Just an FYI:
The K&N filters are $95 pretty much everywhere, but if you order from Advance Auto website, then you can use coupon codes. I added $5 worth of filler and used coupon for $40 off $100, which gets the filters for $60 +10 ship, so a good discount if you want the K&N drop-in filters.
