i just read on the w203 forum (sorry too lazy to link it) that the k&n filter will flood your maf with oil. although there are members that use it on their cars (andy &some others ) and they havent run into any problems. .

Cos that will only suck in hot air, given it will increase the airflow, but the temp will go up if its set up like that...
lol that was first set up on the 320 ( bad idea ) not on my 500 . I made a thread about that too ..I removed that like two days after i got that in . And now i got the C55 AMG airbox on my 500.

That happens when the filters have too much oil. I have been using Green filter with no problem, but I have also read people havving issues with them. Ugh, I can't wait for my engine swap so I say bye bye to the dreaded MAF.
