Left Right Side Engine Air Intake Hose for 2012-2016 Benz GL350 ML350

A set of left and right side engine air intake hoses for 2012-2016 Benz GL350 and ML350 vehicles; cross-references OEM part number 6420948797.

Overview

This left and right side engine air intake hose pair is a direct replacement for cracked, collapsed, or oil-soaked intake pipes on the 2012-2016 Benz GL350 and ML350 diesel. Constructed from heat-resistant reinforced rubber, these Left Right Side Engine Air Intake Hoses restore proper airflow to the turbocharger and engine. They are ideal for owners and shops performing intake system repairs on the OM642 diesel platform.

Built For Performance

• Multi-layer reinforced rubber construction resists oil, heat, and pressure pulses
• Factory-style bends and contours ensure a drop-in fit without kinking
• Built-in vibration dampeners and mounting brackets match OE geometry
• Smooth inner wall reduces turbulence for stable mass airflow readings
• Oil-resistant liner prevents swelling from crankcase vapor and PCV blow-by
• Set includes both left (driver) and right (passenger) side intake hoses

Fits These Machines

• for Benz GL350 (2012-2016)
• for Benz ML350 (2012-2016)

On-The-Job Use

• Daily commuting and long-distance highway travel where intake leaks cause limp mode
• Towing and hauling with the 3.0L BlueTEC diesel where maximum airflow is critical
• Intake system refresh after EGR cooler or swirl flap service
• Restoring performance after an intercooler or charge pipe upgrade
• Cold-weather regions where brittle original hoses crack and trigger boost faults

Specs At A Glance

Good To Know

Q: Why do these intake hoses fail on the OM642 engine? A: Over time, oil from the PCV system and high heat cause the rubber to soften, crack, or collapse, leading to underboost codes and reduced power.

Q: Do I need to reuse the original clamps or are new ones included? A: This hose set is sold without clamps; we recommend inspecting your original constant-tension clamps and replacing any that show corrosion or loss of tension for a leak-free seal.

Slight variation in finish or dimensions may occur between production runs, and fit can depend on serial number, so confirm compatibility before ordering.
