It is not the same quality and spec. That Liqui Moly fluid is a Dexron III and Mercon fluid according to the Liqui Moly site. Liqui Moly say that though it isn't approved by ZF they think you should use it anyway. If you just want to buy a Dexron III fluid, you can get it cheaper at Walmart.

But what you need is the ZF Lifeguard fluid, whether from BMW, ZF, or whoever. Don't confuse a generic Dexron fluid with the proper one.
