Maintain the high-torque efficiency and environmental standards of your Mercedes-Benz BlueTEC diesel engine with the Sakura A-26480-S Air Filter Set. Mercedes V6 diesel engines (OM642) utilize a dual-path air intake system that requires two high-performance filters to be replaced simultaneously. This “S” (Set) package includes a matched pair of filters, providing a complete and balanced filtration solution for your engine’s intake system.
The A-26480-S is built with a rugged Plastic Frame design and a specialized asymmetric profile ($122 mm / 79 mm$ height). This construction is specifically engineered to withstand the high suction pressures generated by Mercedes’ advanced turbo-diesel systems. The high-density multi-fiber media captures microscopic soot and silica particles, preventing them from contaminating the Mass Air Flow (MAF) sensors or causing abrasive wear on the turbocharger compressor wheels.
