The 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS500 is a moderately difficult vehicle to maintain and is only recommended to those capable of vehicle maintenance. You will need to use many tools in order to change the engine air filter. The tools necessary may not be readily available for a repair. The fog light can be difficult to access, as you will have to peel back the wheel well lining for access. This lining can grow tight to the vehicle and be difficult to peel back. You will have to follow many steps in order to raise the wiper blade to replace. Other models make this much easier.

Some things are easier on the 2006 Mercedes-Benz CLS500. The components of the spare tire are easily accessible in the rear of the vehicle. This keeps the tire and jack kit ready to go in case of emergency. Changing the daytime running bulb with reliability is no problem, as you only have to reach behind the housing for access to the assembly. The power steering fluid level is easy to check, as the fluid reservoir is easily accessible in the engine bay.
