Additional Notes
- All Mercedes-Benz CLS-Class C219 variants in the USA and Canadian market share a uniform power steering fluid capacity of 1 liter across the entire 2004-2010 model range, spanning every listed configuration from the CLS 500 through both generations of the CLS 63 AMG.
- A 1-liter capacity is characteristic of a reservoir service fill rather than a full hydraulic system flush, reflecting the volume needed to top off or replace fluid in the power steering reservoir under normal operating conditions.
- All six configurations carry a normal use condition designation, meaning the specified 1-liter capacity applies to standard driving environments rather than elevated-stress or severe-duty operating conditions.
- The CLS 500 (219.375) and CLS 55 AMG Kompressor (219.376) share the same 1-liter capacity for the 2004-2006 period, indicating no differentiation in power steering fluid volume between the naturally aspirated V8 and the supercharged AMG variant of that era.
- The CLS 550 (219.372) appears across two separate year groupings, 2006-2007 and 2007-2010, both with a 1-liter capacity, reflecting a mid-cycle designation split without any change to the power steering fluid specification.
- Similarly, the CLS 63 AMG (219.377) is listed under two distinct year ranges, 2006-2007 and 2007-2010, each retaining the 1-liter figure, consistent with the CLS 550 pattern of split entries within the same generation.
