MANN-FILTER Air Filter C 4287/2 – For Passenger Cars

The Original MANN‑FILTER Air Filter C 4287/2 is a high‑performance engine air filter designed specifically for passenger cars. It delivers superior filtration efficiency, ensuring that only clean, dry air reaches the combustion chamber. This protects the engine from harmful contaminants such as dust, dirt, and moisture, thereby extending its service life and maintaining optimal performance.

Key Features

• High‑Efficiency Filtration: Utilises a multi‑layer media that captures particles down to 0.5 µm, providing excellent protection against airborne pollutants.
• Low Air Resistance: Engineered to minimise pressure drop, which keeps the engine’s airflow smooth and reduces fuel consumption.
• Durable Construction: Made from high‑quality synthetic fibers that resist compression and maintain shape over extended periods of use.
• Easy Installation: Fits standard air filter housings in a wide range of vehicles, including models from VW, Seat, Skoda, and other VAG brands. The design allows for quick removal and replacement without the need for special tools.
• OEM‑Approved Quality: Meets or exceeds original equipment specifications, ensuring that it performs as well as the factory filter.

Compatibility Overview

The C 4287/2 is engineered to fit a broad spectrum of passenger cars. Below are some representative vehicle families and model years where this filter is commonly used:

• Volkswagen: Golf IV (both standard and variant), Polo, New Beetle Cabrio, Bora, and other models from the early 2000s to mid‑2010s.
• Seat: Arosa, Cordoba, Ibiza, Leon, Toledo, and similar models across the same era.
• Skoda: Octavia, Superb, and other passenger cars that share the VAG platform.

Because of its standardised dimensions—approximately 32 mm height × 419 mm width × 188 mm length—the filter is also suitable for a variety of light commercial vehicles and transporters that use the same air intake architecture.

Installation Guide

1. Locate the existing air filter housing, typically found near the engine bay on the passenger side.
2. Remove the cover or door of the housing. If a retaining clip is present, release it carefully.
3. Take out the old filter and discard it responsibly.
4. Place the new C 4287/2 into the housing, ensuring that the filter media faces outward toward the intake pipe.
5. Secure the cover or door back in place. If a clip was used, re‑engage it firmly.
6. Check for any loose connections and verify that the filter is seated correctly.

After installation, start the engine and listen for any unusual noises. A properly fitted filter should not alter the normal engine sound or performance.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter every 12,000–15,000 km or annually, whichever comes first. This interval may vary depending on driving conditions (e.g., dusty environments).
• If you notice a significant drop in engine performance or an increase in fuel consumption, consider replacing the filter sooner.
• A clean air intake system improves combustion efficiency and reduces emissions.
