FAQ
Q: Does this fit my 2015 Sprinter 2500 Passenger Van?
A: Yes. This cabin filter fits all NCV3-generation Sprinters (2007-2017) including passenger, cargo, and crew van configurations.
Q: What's the difference between a standard and carbon-activated cabin filter?
A: A standard particulate filter blocks dust and pollen only. A carbon-activated filter (like this CF10436) adds an activated charcoal layer that absorbs diesel fumes, exhaust gases, and industrial odors — essential for urban delivery routes.
Q: How do I replace the cabin air filter on a Sprinter?
A: The filter is located behind the glovebox on the passenger side. Remove the under-dash panel (3 clips), slide out the old filter tray, swap the filter, and reinstall. No tools required for most models.
