I bought by car certified a few months ago. Opened up the air box and the air filter was pretty filthy @23k , with many bugs nestled in the sides of the filter. I’m surprised the manual calls for this @50k.

Ya, best off changing them like every 30 K miles, simple enough to do and easy part to get at Auto parts stores. 50K miles is kinda to long a interval agree.

$14 on amazon for an OEM filter (same brand and PN w/o the MB stamping)

Great. Can you post a link to that when you get the chance? Thanks. I’d think the e400 twin turbos use the same part number as the e450s.

my e300 was a MANN filter

your E450 should be MAHLE
