2013 Mercedes-Benz G-Class Air Filter in Sudbury, MA

The engine air filter sits in the right-side airbox in the engine bay, and the cabin filter is positioned behind the glove box.

The 2013 Mercedes-Benz G-Class uses a panel-style engine filter that feeds the naturally aspirated 5.5L V8. Access is through the airbox cover clips. The cabin filter is part of the HVAC intake and is typically accessed by removing the glove box panel. If you prefer professional installation, schedule an appointment in Sudbury for careful re-sealing of the airbox and a quick cabin filter swap.

• Open the hood and locate the right-side airbox on the 5.5L V8
• Release the metal clips and lift the cover to access the engine filter

The cabin filter captures dust, pollen, and fine particulates before they enter the interior. Replacing both on schedule preserves performance and interior air quality, especially around Greater Bostons urban traffic and seasonal pollen.
