call local MB and they gave me the following for my 06 now:
211-470-45-94 passenger
211-470-49-94 drivers
211-471-05-79 seal rings
go figure. Don't think it could be more confusing with all these part numbers.

Hello, revisiting this thread after a long wait, not browsed the whole of it yet, but trying to find a few simple answers if someone can past the posts or lead me in the right direction. My 06 CLS is having the leaky sender problem, has for a while. I tried what someone else did and used a sealant around the top of the sender to see if it would stop the leak, but no, it didn't. Now it's leading to my check engine light illumination, as slight emissions leak, I'm quit sure it's the leaking sender. Anyway, only the drivers side is leaking (didn't know there was another, is there?) My question is, is replacing the sender easy? like unscrewing it from top or do I have to lower the gas tank and get at something else? I see the parts list someone posted, so, I know where to get the parts, just want to make sure about the replacement procedure. A good DITY would be nice. =0) Thanks.

there is another post of a DIY for replacing the sender units. If you do attempt, i would make sure that there is less than 1/4 tank of gas. You will need to disconnect the wire connectors that are inside the tank itself the ds from the ps side, and make sure the orientation of the units are the same taken out/put back into place.

No I get a discount at the Stealership. So it came out ot be 440.00. I had to pick up a few other things I had on order so it was easier. Had to order the passenger side as well when is seen the plug was melted on three of the leads.

I don't think there's actually been a recall. If there was, I've got a nice expensive bill to send them.
