Eh, the price isn't that great. Remember, you need two, which would total up about $100 like anywhere else.

For a long time, Benz owners have been experience MAF problems/failure due to oil from the K&Ns. I haven't heard of any cases resulting from using Greens. You can search the forums and decide for yourself.

Yea.. that was my main concerns about K&N.
I think i'll just order green filter to be on the safe side..

For K&N, its' under $90.
For Green, it's under $100

Ground s/h is free.. cheapest price I found so far..

Alright, since this thread has been started already, I'll ask the question that has probably answered in older threads. What is a "real life" story of what the Green Filters will do for the performance and gas milage on a C32? And, how often do they need to be cleaned/maintained? Anyone?.......Anyone?.......

And yes, the price seems pretty good.

The last entry on that page is for the C32.. I just got mine from a local source for about 15 bucks more and I thought I got a good deal.. This is a great deal.. if they have them in stock..

suspiciously like auto parts warehouse

http://www.autopartswarehouse.com/pe...5&brandid=1553


they bungled my order for oem mann filters. sent me c55, turns out they don't have c32 oems.

price was right at $35 with $5 shipping tho.

cross check part # before you decide to order ie- the c55 listing above is actually for the c32.

will do the sl55 airbox after warranty expires in sept..pointless to shell out for green filters. dealers wants $69 for air filters, need a cheap interim replacement.
