• Opel Rekord E and Manta B series (1.8L, 2.0L)

Because of its standardized size and shape, the filter can be used in any vehicle that accepts a C 2163 air filter cartridge.

Installation Instructions

1. Locate the Filter Housing: Open the hood and identify the air filter box. It is typically positioned near the engine bay, often covered by a plastic or metal cover.
2. Remove the Old Filter: Release any clips or screws holding the cover in place, then lift the old filter out of its housing. Dispose of it responsibly.
3. Clean the Housing (Optional): Wipe away any debris or oil residue with a clean cloth to ensure a proper seal.
4. Insert the New Filter: Place the MANN‑FILTER C 2163 into the housing, aligning it with the mounting tabs. Ensure that the filter is seated flush against the walls of the housing.
5. Secure the Cover: Replace the cover and fasten all clips or screws. Verify that the seal is tight to prevent unfiltered air from bypassing the filter.
6. Check for Airflow: Start the engine and listen for any unusual noises. A smooth, quiet operation indicates correct installation.

Maintenance Tips

• Inspect the filter every 10,000 miles or after driving in dusty conditions to determine if early replacement is needed.
