I did the first oil change in the CLS at around 1000K miles along with the rear diff and LSD drain.
Now I just go every 8K miles between oil changes or every 4 months, whichever comes first.

Get the oil change done, and have them drain and refill the rear Diff, and if you have 030, have them service the LSD.
Car will feel better, and smoother. Trust me on this.

Dealership recommendation????
I called the local dealership. Since we have moved and it is not where I bought the car, I wanted to get established. They said 12,000 miles......
Sounds like I should do it sooner.

Why is this so different from what MB recommends? It's almost as if they are setting up for future problems and issues?
