Where is the engine air filter located on a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?

The engine air filter sits in a sealed airbox in the engine bay, and the cabin air filter is typically behind the glove box on a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class.

The engine filter feeds the 5.5L V8’s intake; the cabin filter cleans air entering the HVAC system. Access varies by model year and options, so use care with clips and seals. If you prefer, our Sudbury team can replace both quickly using OEM-spec parts.

  • Engine filter: engine‑bay airbox (intake side)
  • Cabin filter: behind glove box/HVAC housing
  • Book a confirmed time via schedule service
Whats the difference between an engine air filter and a cabin air filter on a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?

The engine air filter protects the V8 by filtering combustion air, while the cabin air filter cleans the air you breathe through the HVAC system.

On the 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, a clean engine filter supports turbo efficiency and power, and a fresh cabin filter helps reduce pollen and dust inside. Both are serviceable items with separate locations and intervals.

  • Engine filter: performance and engine protection
  • Cabin filter: interior air quality and HVAC airflow
  • Different parts, locations, and service intervals
What are the signs of a clogged air filter on a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class?

Engine symptoms include reduced power and lower fuel economy; cabin symptoms include weak HVAC airflow and musty odors.

On the 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, a restricted engine filter can dull turbo response and raise intake noise. A saturated cabin filter strains the blower and may fog windows more easily. If you notice these changes, book an inspection in Sudbury.

  • Engine: sluggish acceleration, rough idle, worse MPG
  • Cabin: reduced airflow, dusty smell, more noise
  • Schedule an inspection and restore airflow
Can I replace the air filter on my 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class myself, or should the dealer do it?

Yes, the engine filter is often DIY‑friendly, but the cabin filter can require trim removal; a dealer visit adds OEM‑spec parts and intake/MAF checks.

If you DIY on a 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class, avoid damaging airbox seals and sensors. Our technicians in Sudbury verify sealing surfaces, inspect the MAF, and use Genuine Mercedes-Benz filters for fit and performance.

2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class Air Filter Specifications

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class uses two serviceable filters: an engine intake air filter for the 5.5L twin‑turbocharged V8 (engine code 8VTTG5.5) and a cabin microfilter for the HVAC system. OEM recommendations specify replacement of the engine air filter at {{vehicle.oem_engine_filter_interval_miles}} miles and the cabin filter at {{vehicle.oem_cabin_filter_interval_miles}} miles, with earlier inspections if you encounter {{rooftop.climate_context}}. Genuine Mercedes-Benz filters (OEM) match factory dimensions, media density, and sealing profiles for reliable airflow and filtration. A restricted engine filter can mute turbo response; a saturated cabin filter reduces airflow and can introduce odors.
