Hi,

I replaced my cabin filters today and noticed that the airflow on the old filters was pointing inwards towards each filter.

This is also stated on this video -


However in the Mann instructions it shows airflow one way.

Any ideas please?

Thanks

i put mine back in the same way the old ones came out. At the end of the day, I really don't think it makes any difference which way they are facing

You want the more coarse side facing outside.

I know this is an old thread but so others don't run into the same problem I did, I'm adding this update: I have a 2012 S550, on my car the plate on the filter box comes off the same way with one exception, in addition to sliding the two clasps, my car had TWO MORE TORX SCREWS holding the plate on. They are on each edge and are hard to see as they are recessed into the plate. If you can't get the plate off your car look for the torx screws. Once removed the plate fell off. Hope this helps anyone doing this simple job.

I went searching for just this very thing today as I could not get the plate off my 2013 S350. It looks so easy in the videos. I found only 1 torx screw tho! Thanks!
