2019 Mercedes-Benz Metris Air Filter in Sudbury, MA

It sits inside the under-hood airbox, positioned along the intake tract ahead of the 2.0L turbocharged inline-4.

This airbox location allows the filter to clean intake air before it reaches the turbocharger and mass airflow (MAF) sensor. On the 2019 Mercedes-Benz Metris, the cabin (HVAC) filter is separate and typically accessed behind the glove box area. If you prefer professional help in Sudbury, you can schedule service online.

• Open hood, locate the rectangular airbox along the intake ducting.
• Release the airbox clips/screws and lift the cover evenly.
• Note filter orientation; avoid touching the MAF sensor during reassembly.

The engine air filter protects the 2.0L turbo engine’s intake air, while the cabin air filter cleans the air that enters the HVAC for passengers.

These are separate filters with different jobs. The engine filter helps maintain performance, fuel economy, and turbo/MAF health. The cabin filter captures dust and pollen common around Greater Boston, improving in-van air quality. If you’re unsure which needs attention, book a quick check and comparison during a single visit.

• Engine filter: pre-turbo, protects combustion and sensors.
• Cabin filter: behind glove box, improves HVAC airflow and air quality.
• Both are serviced independently and on different schedules.
