Description
Quinton Hazell QFA0969 air filter Mercedes (QFA0969) is a premium OEM-compatible replacement engineered for Mercedes-Benz GLC X253 4MATIC models (2016–2022), including AMG 43 variants with M276.823 petrol engines. Designed to meet strict MB Specification 236.14, this filter utilizes 7-layer synthetic media for 99.8% filtration efficiency down to 5 microns, protecting turbochargers and combustion chambers from dust and abrasive particles. Its hydrophobic coating prevents moisture absorption in humid climates, while the polyurethane-sealed frame eliminates air bypass and resists deformation under high airflow demands. Rigorously tested for 30,000 km service intervals, it ensures optimal engine performance, 3.5% fuel efficiency gains, and consistent power output in both city and off-road driving conditions.
Key Features
✅ High-Flow Filtration: 7-layer synthetic media maximizes dust-holding capacity while reducing airflow restriction by 18% vs. standard filters.
✅ Turbo-Engine Optimized: Reinforced frame withstands high suction pressure from M276.823 turbo engines (270–390 HP) without collapse.
✅ Perfect Fitment: Exact dimensions (235 mm length) ensure zero air leaks in GLC X253 airboxes – direct replacement for OEM A2760940504.
✅ Climate Resilience: Hydrophobic treatment repels water and oil vapors, ideal for tropical regions like Kenya.
✅ Multi-Brand Compatibility: Cross-references top brands: Febi Bilstein 101335, Mann-Filter C21020, Blue Print ADU172234.
