2 Answers
The cabin air filter of the Mercedes-Benz V260 is located inside the glove compartment in front of the passenger seat. The replacement method is as follows: 1. Open the glove compartment and remove the fuse box inside; 2. Unscrew all the screws on the glove compartment and then remove the cover panel; 3. Remove the plastic clips on both sides of the cabin air filter and replace it with a new one; 4. Reassemble the cover panel and fuse box in the reverse order of removal. The Mercedes-Benz V260 is an MPV with body dimensions of 5370mm in length, 1928mm in width, and 2100mm in height. The V260 is equipped with an M274L 4-cylinder turbocharged direct-injection engine.
I often perform DIY car maintenance myself. The cabin air filter for the Mercedes-Benz V260 is located in the footwell area of the front passenger seat, right behind the glove compartment. To replace it, you'll first need to remove the inner panel of the glove box or release the clips - be careful not to break any plastic components. The filter is housed inside a rectangular slot. Remember to prepare a small screwdriver or wrench as you might need to unscrew a few fasteners to access it. A dirty filter will make the cabin air smell unpleasant. I recommend checking it every six months or 10,000 km - replacement is quite straightforward and takes about 20 minutes. Regularly ventilating your car by opening windows can help extend the filter's lifespan. Health comes first.
