The MANN‑FILTER Air Filter C 28 036 is a premium engine air filter designed specifically for passenger vehicles. It delivers superior protection against dust, dirt, and other airborne contaminants while maintaining optimal airflow to the combustion chamber.

Key Features

• High‑Performance Filtration: Utilises advanced multi‑layer media that captures particles as small as 0.5 µm, ensuring clean air reaches the engine.
• Optimised Airflow: Engineered to minimise pressure drop, which improves fuel efficiency and reduces engine load.
• Durable Construction: Made from high‑quality synthetic fibers that resist moisture absorption and maintain filtration performance over extended periods.
• Easy Installation: Fits standard air filter housings in a wide range of Hyundai and Kia models, including the Sonata VII, Optima Sportswagon, and other popular passenger cars.
• Long‑Lasting Life: Designed for longevity; typical service intervals extend beyond 12,000 km under normal driving conditions.

Compatibility Overview

The C 28 036 filter is engineered to match the exact dimensions and mounting specifications of many modern passenger cars. Below are representative models that benefit from this filter:

• Hyundai Sonata VII (LF) – Engine variants ranging from 1.7 L CRDi to 2.0 L inline‑four.
• Kia Optima Sportswagon – Includes the 1.7 CRDi and 2.0 L gasoline engines.
• Other Hyundai and Kia passenger cars with similar air intake geometries, ensuring a snug fit and reliable seal.

Installation Instructions

1. Prepare the Vehicle: Park on level ground, engage the parking brake, and allow the engine to cool if it has been running.
2. Remove the Old Filter: Open the air filter housing, carefully lift out the existing filter, and note its orientation for correct placement of the new unit.
3. Clean the Housing: Wipe any debris from the filter chamber with a dry cloth to prevent contamination during installation.
4. Insert the New Filter: Place the C 28 036 filter into the housing, aligning it with the mounting tabs. Ensure that the filter’s airflow direction arrow points toward the engine.
5. Secure the Housing: Reattach the cover and tighten all fasteners evenly to maintain a proper seal.
6. Check for Leaks: Start the engine and observe for any unusual noises or reduced performance, which may indicate an improper fit.
