FAQs

How often should I replace the Mahle Air Filter LX816/4?

Replacement intervals vary by vehicle and driving conditions. Consult your vehicle's owner's manual or replace it annually or every 10,000-15,000 miles as a general guideline, or sooner if driving in dusty environments.

What do the dimensions (112mm OD, 80mm ID, 432mm height) mean?

These are the physical measurements of the filter: Outer Diameter (OD), Inner Diameter (ID), and Height. They are critical for ensuring the filter fits correctly within your vehicle's air filter housing.

Can I clean and reuse this air filter?

No, this is a disposable filter insert designed for replacement, not cleaning. Attempting to clean it can damage the filter media and reduce its effectiveness.

What is the difference between this and an OE filter?

This Mahle LX816/4 is designed to meet or exceed the specifications of the original equipment (OE) filter for compatible vehicles. It shares OE/OEM numbers, indicating its intended equivalence.

What are the alternative part numbers for?

Alternative part numbers like 502220844 and 502220840 refer to filters that are interchangeable with the Mahle LX816/4, often from different manufacturers or across different vehicle service lines.

Where is this filter made?

While the product information specifies Mahle Original as the manufacturer, the specific country of manufacture is not detailed in the provided data. Mahle operates globally.

Troubleshooting

Engine performance seems reduced after installation

Ensure the air filter is correctly seated in the housing and that the housing is properly sealed. Check for any potential air leaks around the filter.

Filter does not fit the airbox

Double-check the part number against your vehicle's requirements and the filter's specifications (OD 112mm, ID 80mm, Height 432mm). Confirm compatibility using OE/OEM numbers.

Check Engine light remains on

While unlikely to be caused by a new filter, ensure no other maintenance was performed concurrently. If the light persists, further diagnostics may be needed.
