Product Description

The K&N 33-2181 is a washable, reusable panel air filter built as a direct drop-in replacement across a broad range of Mercedes-Benz models, spanning the C-Class, CLK-Class, E-Class, GL-Class, ML-Class, R-Class, S-Class, and SL-Class. Constructed from layered, oiled cotton gauze, it's engineered to improve airflow across the 3.0L, 3.5L, and 5.5L engine variants used in these vehicles.

As a reusable filter, the 33-2181 is designed to last the life of the vehicle rather than requiring periodic replacement, needing only occasional cleaning under normal driving conditions. Made in the USA and backed by K&N's 10-Year/Million Mile Limited Warranty, it offers long-term value over repeated disposable filter purchases.

Because this single part number spans multiple Mercedes-Benz body styles and three different engine displacements over more than a decade of production, owners should confirm their exact model, engine, and model year before ordering to ensure proper fitment.
