Product Description

The K&N 33-2703 is a direct-fit, high-flow replacement air filter covering a broad range of Mercedes-Benz platforms that share a common airbox configuration - including the W202 C-Class (1993-2000), W208 CLK320 (1998-2003), W163 M-Class (1998-2005), and the iconic C199 SLR McLaren (2005-2009). It installs directly into the factory airbox with no cutting, drilling, or modifications required, and the multi-layer oiled cotton gauze construction delivers significantly greater airflow than a standard paper element while maintaining effective filtration.

Designed to be cleaned and re-oiled every 75,000 miles rather than replaced, the 33-2703 is a long-term, cost-effective upgrade. It is emissions legal in all 50 U.S. states and will not void the manufacturer's warranty. Note: this filter is specific to the W202/W163/W208 and SLR McLaren platforms - owners of the newer W203 C-Class (2002-2007) or W164 M-Class (2006+) should verify their specific platform before ordering.
