Engine Air Filter vs Cabin Air Filter

The 2023 Mercedes-Benz C-Class C 300 relies on two distinct filtration systems: the engine air filter that protects the turbocharged 2.0L inline engine and the cabin air filter that safeguards passenger comfort. The engine air filter ensures clean airflow for combustion, preserving the model’s 255 horsepower and 295 lb-ft of torque characteristics. A clogged engine filter reduces throttle response and economy, while an obstructed cabin filter affects air quality and HVAC efficiency. At Park Place Motorcars Fort Worth in Fort Worth, TX, our certified technicians inspect both filters during routine visits and recommend replacements based on OEM standards. We use genuine Mercedes-Benz parts, so you maintain performance, emissions compliance, and warranty integrity.
