Technical Specifications

Compatibility & Vehicle Support

The Bosch A8528 Cabin Filter Filter+ is specifically engineered for a wide range of passenger vehicles. While it is most commonly found in Mercedes‑Benz models such as the E‑Class, S‑Class, C‑Class, and GLA, its universal design allows installation in many other brands that use the same filter cavity dimensions.

To confirm fitment:

• Check your vehicle’s owner manual for cabin air filter specifications.
• Measure the existing filter cavity or compare with a new filter’s dimensions.
• Verify that the filter housing is compatible with an activated carbon layer.

Installation Guide

1. Locate the Cabin Filter Compartment: Typically behind the glove box or under the dashboard on the passenger side.
2. Open the Cover: Release any clips or screws holding the filter housing in place.
3. Remove Old Filter: Gently pull out the previous filter, noting its orientation.
4. Insert New Filter: Align the airflow arrows on the filter with the vehicle’s airflow direction and slide it into the cavity until fully seated.
5. Secure the Housing: Replace clips or screws to lock the filter in place.
6. Close the Cover: Ensure the compartment is sealed properly to prevent dust ingress.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter every 12–18 months, especially if you drive frequently on dusty roads or in urban environments.
• Avoid using compressed air directly onto the filter; this can damage the activated carbon layer.
• If the cabin feels stale or the HVAC system shows reduced airflow, replace the filter sooner.

Performance Benefits

The combination of a high‑efficiency particulate filter and an activated carbon core means that the Bosch A8528 Cabin Filter Filter+ delivers:

• Up to 99.9 % particle removal efficiency.
• Significant reduction in airborne odors, including cigarette smoke, exhaust fumes, and cooking smells.

Environmental Impact

By extending the service life of cabin filters and reducing the need for frequent replacements, the Bosch A8528 Cabin Filter Filter+ contributes to lower waste generation. Additionally, its high filtration efficiency helps reduce the release of particulate matter into the environment when vehicles are in operation.

User Experience Highlights

Owners report a noticeable difference in cabin air freshness after installing this filter. Many note that the HVAC system feels less clogged and that the overall driving experience is more comfortable, especially during long trips or in polluted urban settings.
