The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class engine air filter sits inside a sealed airbox in the engine bay ahead of the V6 turbo diesel intake tract.

This enclosure protects the 3.0L intake from debris while ensuring correct airflow to the turbocharger. The cabin air filter is separate, typically housed behind the glove box within the HVAC assembly. Our team can show you both locations during your visit to Mercedes-Benz of Sudbury.

• Engine filter: sealed airbox in the engine compartment
• Cabin filter: HVAC housing, commonly behind the glove box
• Access requires careful clip/cover handling to avoid damage

During a 2016 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class air filter service, we begin by confirming your concerns and reviewing the maintenance schedule in your owners booklet. The technician opens the engine airbox, inspects the existing filter for debris and restriction, and replaces it with a Mercedes-Benz Genuine Part when due. We visually inspect the intake housing and MAF sensor area for sealing and contamination. For the cabin filter, we access the HVAC housing (typically behind the glove box), remove the old filter, clean the housing as needed, and install a fresh OEM-spec cabin filter with correct airflow orientation. If applicable, we reset reminders in your vehicle and road-test for airflow and noise checks. When youre ready, schedule service and well prepare parts in advance for a smooth visit.

The 2016 Mercedes-Benz GL-Class features a 3.0L V6 turbo diesel (engine code 6VTCD3.0) that depends on precise intake airflow. The engine air filter is housed in a sealed airbox to protect the turbocharger and maintain the correct mass airflow readings. The cabin air filter is part of the HVAC assembly to reduce dust, pollen, and odors entering the passenger compartment. For both, Mercedes-Benz Genuine Parts provide the correct media density and sealing surfaces. Always follow the OEM maintenance booklet for replacement intervals; local conditions can shorten service life. If youre unsure of part references, our parts counter can confirm by VIN.
