U know what my dumbass didn't try....I didn't try flipping it over & putting it in the opposite way....hmmmmmm...hmmmmm maybe I should do that.
EDIT: Don't know if it was that or I was more patient because my 3 year old wasn't asking me 101 questions, but its in correctly now.

In other threads related to this issue, some have suggested that the MBZ service dept might frown on aftermarket filters. Some have also suggested keeping the factory filters and putting them in prior to taking the car to the dealer for service to avoid any issues. Anyone in this thread getting flack from the MBZ service dept for not using the factory filter?
Also, any significant MPG or performance boosts after installing the K&N filters?
