I bet you guys don't know that if you lose any of the engine cover clips, that you can't buy them from Mercedes. I ran into this issue, as these clips are part of the engine cover. As Mercedes doesn't sell them separately. Which is stupid to me, but a friend of mine found me some, although their not a Mercedes part.

I also heard the clips that hold in the MAF sensors cant be bought.And on top of that I hear you cant even buy the MAF if you need them.You have to buy the airboxes to get them?Does that make any sense?

Lycan,

I didn't know that you were in the Marine Corps? What unit were you in? As I was also in the Corps. I was in the infantry.

How does the charcoal filter come out? *edit* Holy **** look at how bad they were! Do you think there were the original filters? The car just turned 38k.

Also does anybody know if this little plastic cover piece is supposed to latch onto something on the left side of the picture? There's nothing for the little snap to latch on to underneath.

Yes, there should be mounting point there. It wound clip in under the engine compartment rubber seal. I would take a picture but I have no way to load from this ipad

K&N filter better

Lycan, Accross the net endless discussion about paper vs air filters. My read is K&N flows somewhat better , paper keeps more dirt out. FYI. Please do not start a huge discussion. Surf and see. Motoman
