Thank you sooooo much. I am a single woman. I. Paid $700 to have them change the filters and do a service and the filter STILL smells!! So, now I can go look to see if they really did their job!! And next I'll save a lot!!!

Best filter replacement video For the Mercedes Benz 166 on KZbin. Kudos.

[@gdlandbg]

Great video!!! My wife said she can change her GLE filters after seeing this!!! She was frustrated by a local repair shop that kept her car for 6 hours but NEVER were able to replace her cabin air filters!!! Now she has zero confidence in them after seeing this incredibly well done simple video!! Awesome!! Thanks Nikita K !!

[@ivoovi7680]

You're welcome!

[@darnellhoward660]

Awesome video, thank you. I just bought a GLE and was wondering why everyone was showing taking off the glove box. This is way more efficient

[@ivoovi7680]

Glad I could help

[@joelcrow]

Thank you for taking time to help us! I'm going to put some perfume on them to see if that will freshen the overall smell inside mine. 😅

[@ivoovi7680]

You are very welcome. I would not recommend using a perfume, because it may create an environment for growing bacteria and fungi. You may try spraying a disinfectant(Clorox or similar) into the filter air intake while the AC is running. But not too much.

[@usthmana.9070]

Awesome! awesome! Thank you for the video. I'm changing my soon.

[@darnelldalid995]

[@darlenecoker2832]

Thank you for this

[@warnerbrunton8666]

Great vid ivoovi. To the top right hand side of the first filter in the air intake housing there is a hole. You can see it at 3:15 on your vid. When I removed my filter I inadvertently knocked out a plug and can’t see it below. There doesn’t seem to be one in your vid. Any idea what it’s for?

[@islandmobosp]

Great video Thank you

[@ivoovi7680]

Glad you enjoyed it

[@slam44]

Thank you!

[@trinawaters4638]

Thank you never knew this..

[@turbophx1]

How do you release the pin under the glovebox to replace the second cabin air filter? I have W167 and it doesn’t have a hex pattern

[@atikin7844]

Thank you so much 😊

[@young8092]

good job👍

[@ivoovi7680]

Thank you! Cheers!

[@MissPinkStiletto]

THANK YOU!

[@neilpoulicakos740]

Great video! Do you have any videos that show how to change the engine air filter for a 2018 amg gle 43?

[@ivoovi7680]

Thanks, unfortunately I do not have access to such vehicle at the moment.

[@wandarivera3585]

Than you so much!!!!

[@1970w30olds]

Awesome, simple instructions with out wasted time, nice job--- Any insight to musty smell common to Mercedes? TIA

[@ivoovi7680]

This is a common problem with this generation GLE. Not all cars were affected, but there was enough for having a class action lawsuit. I heard some people take the filters out, and while the ac is running they spray a little disinfectant into the air intake.

[@betherealdeal]

Thank you

[@victorjimenez1726]

Does anyone know the correct Mann part number for the frecious plus variants to these same filters for the gle 350?

[@stevebilenky4059]

Excellent

[@stevebilenky4059]

On a previous ML350 I went through the glove box and on our now GLE350 I did it your way, like your way much better, thanks again!!!

[@jamesmason8944]

How does the rain not fall in thru the grills.?

[@boza5382]

can i ask you one thing? my gle350 has no splash shield under the engine, so i can see the ground through the engine space. is it normal?

[@ivoovi7680]

I do have that shield, but still can see the ground a little.

[@embob007]

Great video! My GLE63 has the air ionization option. Is it still the same filters?

[@ivoovi7680]

Thanks. Filters are the same, as the ionization module is behind the dash and does not affect the filter compartment.

[@marinatraverso9288]

So we need to order 3 filters in total?

[@csl399]

Por favor y fuera de contesto.? Que de bueno es el motor del ML350d 2012 y km. Que puede hacer con el mantenimiento correcto. Gracias.

[@wildturkey502]

I have 2018 GLE 350 4matic , I couldn't find the filter one goes in the front ,catches leaves and Dirts , can you give me part number please ? Thanks in Advance

[@jehanwatleyco.8150]

I am looking to do as much DIY as I can prior to going in for routine maintenance. The Mercedes dealership will fleece you!

[@MrAluislugo]

Hi I couldn't see the part numbers can you please list them? Thank you!

[@ivoovi7680]

Mercedes part number for the blower housing: Part# 166-830-72-01 Part# 166-830-82-01 Filter for the air intake housing: Mercedes Part# 166-830-02-18 FRAM CF11719

[@starsforyou7804]

Where can I buy original mercedes air filters? Thank you.

[@ivoovi7680]

Any Mercedes dealership has it.

[@user-zs6pz8kd8h]

[@novac6839]

To 2012-2014 ML350 the filters comp located under the glovebox not like this

[@rayjang9348]

This video shows how to replace all three cabin air filters. By going through the glove box, you can only access two out of three filters. Bonus: this method is also easier and faster! Thank you for sharing your knowledge, helping us save $$, and also enabling us to feel the satisfaction of completing a well done job! I will have to use both my hands though…

[@richardpruitt5193]

3 filters really Mercedes 🤦‍♂️

[@frankbaldanza2226]

Thank you for your video it was very helpful and save me money I recently purchased a GLE 2019 400 for the life of me I cannot figure out how to check the oil being and has no dipstick can you help feel free to email me thank you
