The filter element further has a lever element that, in the mounted state of the filter element in the filter housing, is resting on a second housing part that is provided on the filter housing or on the housing cover and force-loads the clamping element against the first housing part. The clamping element and the lever element form a single part and are preferably provided on an end disk of the filter element.
