I just started using ATE super Blue racing brake fluid, DOT 4.
I'm told it is what BMW uses for its street cars.  The fluid is
available in blue and amber - so you can tell when bleeding the brakes
when you have new fluid.
It has slightly better performance specs than Castrol fluid which I used
to use.

I ordered my fluid when I ordered a power-bleeder.
