Changing Air and Climate Control Filters

Can anyone provide me with guidance on where the air filter and climate control filters are located? I figure I have to pop the engine cover but have no idea how it comes off.

No clue on the A/C filter location.

Unlike BMW and Infiniti, MB always seems to keep even the simplest maint. items difficult to do.

Appreciate the help.

I beleive you will find them if you remove your glove compartment liner. Just to make sure make a quick call to your local service dept.

here you go:

follow link, I haven't done it yet, but you can have a go. (climate control)

Let us know if it is as straightforward as the pictures.

Engine air filter, pretty straightforward, open the hood, and the big square(ish) box on the front left with six (or so) clips which you unhook and lift up the cover.
