Mann Filter C 1145/6 Hummel Air Filter

The Mann Filter C 1145/6 Hummel Air Filter is a high‑performance engine air filter designed to deliver superior protection for the combustion chamber while maintaining optimal airflow. Developed by Mann, a leading name in automotive filtration, this filter combines advanced materials and engineering precision to meet the demanding requirements of modern passenger cars.

Key Features & Benefits

• Exceptional Contamination Protection: The filter’s multi‑layer construction captures fine dust, pollen, and other airborne particles down to sub‑micron sizes, safeguarding pistons, valves, and bearings from wear.
• Optimized Airflow: Despite its dense filtration media, the C 1145/6 maintains a low pressure drop, ensuring that engine breathing is not compromised. This translates into better throttle response and fuel efficiency.
• Durable Construction: Encased in a robust polypropylene housing with reinforced edges, the filter resists deformation under high temperatures and mechanical stress during operation.
• Easy Installation: The standard size (179 mm) and snap‑fit design allow for quick replacement without special tools. The filter’s shape matches the original mounting points on compatible vehicles.
• Long Service Life: With a rated lifespan of up to 30,000 km under normal driving conditions, the C 1145/6 reduces maintenance frequency and extends intervals between replacements.

Technical Specifications

Vehicle Compatibility Overview

The C 1145/6 is engineered to fit a broad spectrum of compact and mid‑size vehicles. Below is an illustrative list of models that typically accept this filter size:

Installation Guide

1. Preparation: Park the vehicle on a level surface, engage the parking brake, and disconnect the battery to prevent accidental starter engagement.
2. Remove Old Filter: Locate the air filter housing (usually behind the engine cover). Open the housing by releasing the clips or screws. Carefully lift out the old filter, noting its orientation.
3. Clean Housing: Wipe the interior of the housing with a dry cloth to remove dust and debris that could compromise the new filter’s seal.
4. Install New Filter: Place the C 1145/6 into the housing, aligning it with the mounting tabs. Ensure the filter sits flush against the housing walls.
5. Secure Housing: Reattach the clips or screws to lock the housing in place. Verify that the seal is intact and there are no gaps.
6. Reconnect Battery & Test: Restore the battery connection, start the engine, and listen for any unusual noises. Check the air intake for proper airflow.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter every 10,000 km or after driving in dusty conditions; a visibly dirty filter may still allow particles to pass through.
• Avoid cleaning the filter with water or solvents; it is designed for one‑time use. Replace if damaged.
• Store spare filters in a dry, cool place away from direct sunlight to preserve material integrity.
