Additional Notes

  • The Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class C219 coolant capacities vary considerably across engine variants, ranging from 7 liters on the CLS 550 up to 13.2 liters on the CLS 55 AMG Kompressor.
  • The CLS 55 AMG Kompressor (219.376) carries the largest cooling system capacity in the lineup at 13.2 liters, reflecting the thermal demands of a supercharged V8 engine, which generates substantially more heat than a naturally aspirated unit.
  • The CLS 500 (219.375) has a cooling system capacity of 10.65 liters for the 2004-2006 model years, placing it between the supercharged AMG variant and the later V8 models in terms of coolant volume.
  • The CLS 550 (219.372) holds 7 liters of coolant across both the 2006-2007 and 2007-2010 model year groupings, indicating no change in cooling system capacity between those two production periods.
  • The CLS 63 AMG (219.377) has a cooling system capacity of 8 liters, consistent across both the 2006-2007 and 2007-2010 model year groupings. The naturally aspirated AMG V8 in the 63 requires a moderately larger cooling volume than the CLS 550 despite sharing a similar displacement class.
  • All six configurations carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the listed capacities apply to standard operating environments rather than severe-duty or high-stress service cycles.
  • The transition from the CLS 500 to the CLS 550 designation between 2006 and 2007 coincides with a significant reduction in cooling system capacity, from 10.65 liters down to 7 liters, reflecting a different engine generation rather than a simple displacement change.
