Lightbulb cheap tune-up for ACC systems, check/change your cabin filter! (if applicable)

i read SO MANY posts about ACC system problems, that i just wanted to submit a friendly reminder about cheap preventative medicine for these ever "sensitive" systems.

i just purchased my 3rd MB. a 95 C-280. that's a 202 car.

i was going thru all of the things i wanted to check and bring "up to date/spec" on the car when i pulled the cabin filter for the ACC.

what a DIRTY fouled mess it was! it was dated manuf 94, so i am sure it was probably the origional filter in the car. it sure did it's job, as it was full of all kinds of crap. i could not believe some of the junk imbedded in the filter folds.

dealer quoted $40 and could "probably" get it about a week.
Phil at fastlane (see above link at top of active page) has it for $21, and it ships the next day. quess who got my business?

so... if you have any ACC maladies, and have not replaced the cabin filter, be sure to check the condition of this filter. it can't hurt to replace it, and i KNOW that the airflow will HAVE TO BE IMPROVED on my system.

i hope this may help someone else.
