Additional Notes

  • Across all three CLE-Class C236 / A236 configurations starting with the 2023 model year, brake fluid level is specified as "between min and max" rather than as a fixed volume, which is characteristic of a sealed hydraulic brake system where fluid is topped to reservoir markers rather than filled to a measured capacity.
  • The 24-month change interval applies under normal use conditions for the CLE 300 4MATIC, meaning the fluid is replaced on a time-based schedule regardless of mileage accumulated within that period.
  • The same 24-month normal-use interval carries over identically to the CLE 450 4MATIC, indicating no variation in brake fluid service frequency between the base and mid-tier engine configurations.
  • The Mercedes-Benz CLE 53 AMG 4MATIC, despite being the performance-oriented variant in the lineup, shares the identical 24-month brake fluid change interval and the same min-to-max fill specification as the non-AMG models.
