I would reccomend this:


more info here: http://www.ate-na.com/generator/www/...bf_sl6_us.html

It is designed for ABS and traction control systems (that is controlled via brakes)where low viscosity is vital. I have used ATE Super Blue in my old Porsches due to its great high-temp boiling points.

This is more than likely a order item....I have never seen it in any chain auto stores.

I just flushed my BMW 328is with the ATE super blue. Been using this stuff for years.
I get mine at www.pelicanparts.com
It's not too pricey at $15 or so a liter.
If you need anything else i think the shipping's free over $75
It's blue in color so you can see when the new stuff is coming out the bleeder tube.
