Hi, I just got a new W210 cabin air filter that's supposed to be OEM MB, came in the right box etc., but instead of the usual heavy solid feeling box o' charcoal I got a pleated zigzag of charcoal impregnated media. I get filters for my Passat that're made of the same stuff, granted a lot less of it, and they are nowhere near as effective as the MB filter at eliminating odors. Has anyone had experience with the new style filter? Is pleated less effective?
TIA,
-Tom
