Hand removing cabin air filter

Having clean air in your vehicle’s cabin is something you enjoy while driving around Saskatoon. But how often should you change your cabin air filter? Our service centre technicians recommend changing your cabin air filter every 24,145 kilometers. We recommend checking your owner’s manual for the correct intervals for your Mercedes-Benz model. Yet what does a cabin air filter do? In the following guide, Mercedes-Benz Regina explores why cabin air filters are important and what a cabin air filter costs to replace. Learn more below and contact our service centre team with additional questions.

What Does a Cabin Air Filter Do?

So, what does a cabin air filter do while you drive around Winnipeg? A cabin air filter cleans the air entering your vehicle’s ventilation, heating, and air conditioning systems, keeping pollen, dirt, and other pollutants from getting inside your cabin. Over time, this will get clogged, which impacts your vehicle’s interior air quality.

Signs That It’s Time to Change a Cabin Air Filter

Now that you know what a cabin air filter does, what are some signs it needs replacing? If you’re noticing smoke in the air while driving around the Calgary area, your filter needs replacing. There are also additional signs that might impact how often to change your cabin air filter:

 

  • Reduced airflow when your climate control systems are on
  • You’re noticing more dust than usual setting on your vehicle’s surfaces
  • There are lingering odors inside your car

How To Change a Cabin Air Filter

If you would rather change your vehicle’s air filter yourself, here are the steps for more adventurous DIY buyers:

 

  1. Check your owner’s manual on where your cabin air filter is.
  2. Usually, your cabin air filter is located behind the glove box or under the hood, yet in some vehicles, it’s under the dashboard and might be more difficult to reach.
  3. Wear gloves and a mask when removing the dirty air filter.
  4. Place your old filter in a garbage bag, and replace it with a new Mercedes-Benz OEM part, ensuring it’s the right fit. You can order your cabin air filter online from our parts centre.

How Much Does Changing a Cabin Air Filter Cost?

Now that you know how often to change your cabin air filter, how much will it cost? Depending on the make and model of your vehicle, a cabin air filter replacement can cost between $35 and $100. It might be covered if you go to a Mercedes-Benz-authorized service centre and your model is still under warranty. You can also check out our service offers to save on your next visit.
