Do you mean you actually have the "green" CHF 11 S fluid in your reservoir...or are you just saying that you have the CHF 11 S reservoir...but there's (red) ATF fluid inside of it?

I ask because BMW stopped making the small black plastic ATF reservoirs and lids to those reservoirs...and the superceded part is to install the CHF 11 S reservoirs and caps as replacement for either if a new one or replacement is called for.

If your PS system has ATF in it...you don't have to switch over to CHF 11 S (unless one wants to). BMW provided labels to be used to help identify that the vehicle still uses ATF even though it may have a CHF 11 S lid or lid & reservoir installed due to a need to replace the reservoir or lid.
