Description
The air cleaner on your Mercedes-Benz houses your air filter, and it channels all of the air which is being drawn into the engine. It must be held in place atop the engine, and that's where the air cleaner rubber mounts come in.
These rubber mounts bolt to the intake manifold with one side of the built in stub, and the air cleaner bolts to the other side of the stud.
Since they are made of rubber, these mounts will eventually break down, or can be misplaced or even broken. It is a good idea to inspect all of the mounts whenever servicing the air cleaner, and replace any which show signs of damage or wear.
Don't forget, Euromotiv carries a full line of replacement clips, grommets, and air filters to suit your needs.
