Hey there, Mercedes owners! If your GL450, GL550, or ML350 is acting up with a rough idle, slow starts, or just seems down on power, a cracked air intake hose could be the culprit. This pair from Acropix is a direct, non-OEM replacement for those plastic tubes that run from your air cleaner box to the engine. They match the original part numbers (A1645051461 and A1645051361) and are made from quality, heat-resistant plastic to stand up to under-hood temps. Each hose measures about 20.27 inches long. They fit a range of models: GL450 (4.6L & 4.7L V8, 2007-2012), GL550 (5.5L V8, 2008-2012), and ML350/ML550 (2006-2011, see full list). Swapping out a torn hose restores proper airflow, which can fix those drivability issues and even help your fuel economy. It's a pretty straightforward repair that can make a big difference. The set includes two hoses, so you can replace both sides at once. Always double-check your specific year, model, and engine to confirm fitment before you order!
