Mann Filter cabin air filter CUK 29 005 — Activated carbon OE-fit for Mercedes, reduces dust, pollen & odors

The MANN-FILTER CUK 29 005 is an activated-carbon cabin air filter designed to replace the factory unit in many Mercedes‑Benz models, reducing particulates, odors and pollutant gases entering the passenger compartment.

Built to original-equipment standards, this replacement cabin filter combines a multi-layer particulate medium with a premium activated carbon layer to address dust, pollen, exhaust smells and common cabin contaminants. MANN‑FILTER manufactures to strict tolerances so the element seats securely in the housing and maintains steady airflow and filtration performance for the service interval.

How does this filter improve in-cabin air quality?

The CUK 29 005 captures microscopic particles and adsorbs volatile compounds that ordinary paper filters may miss. Its activated carbon layer targets odors and gaseous pollutants, while the media traps dust and biological particles.

• Multi-layer media for particle retention down to fine dust and pollen
• Activated carbon layer that adsorbs odors and common exhaust gases
• OE-grade construction ensures even airflow and filtration across the element
