Stock part # for E500

Does anyone have the part number for OEM air condition and intake filter for E500? Also how much would it cost when I buy them at the dealerships?

Hi, Dvinn.

I'd suggest that you hit one of the oem places on line, such as autohausaz.com or autopartswarehouse.com. I've dealt with both of them and have been very satisfied; they have good stock, great prices and ship free once you hit the $50 price point. They have both of the A/C filters for my 210 (the charcoal and the regular one) for lots less than the dealers. And they are oem parts, not junk aftermarket.

If by Intake you meant the main air filter for the engine, lots of guys go to the K&N, which is about 2-3 times the cost of the stock paper one (if purchased at a discount), but it lasts forever (just requires periodic cleaning and re-oiling) and filters better, usually with a little performance increase as well. I've been very happy with mine; I picked up about a mile per gallon. Autopartswarehouse.com carries them for about $40 for the E500.

Take care and enjoy the ride,
Greg

Thanks for the suggestions on the web site. I have a question at Autopartswarehouse.com, they have 2 different brands for air filter set (03 E500) Hengst ($41) and Mann ($31) do you know which one is the oem part?
