Air Filters

I just wanted to let everyone know that although there are places you can order green filters for our cars, there really isn't one made specifically to fit our model. K&N makes filters that specifically fit the SLK 55, but if you try to type in the equivalent green filter at their website, there's none listed.

http://www.greenfilterusa.com/kandn.asp

The K&N equivalent part # is 33-2859 taken from http://www.knfilters.com/search/appsearch.aspx

Does this mean that Green Filter doesn't make filters to fit our cars?

http://www.greenfilterusa.com/vehicle.asp - the last green filter made for the SLK was for the 2004 SLK 32 AMG.

Is it recommended? Iam thinking of getting 2 airfilters for my SLK 55 if it was worth it!

That is incorrect. Green Filter does have the filters that fit the SLK55. There website just sucks and is not updated. (the filters are out of stock btw).

Some people are not aware that the Filter in the SLK55 is the same as almost 90% of the Mercedes V8 Filters. Such as the C55, W209 CLK55, W211 E55, CLS55, SL55 etc... All the same filters.
