You right, however:
- First problem is that, unless you use a special "pressure" pump, you can't drain all the fluid, so a mix is unavoidable.
- Second, the preconized fliuid by BMW differs depending of the country/market! I can tell you that the fluid sold here by the BMW agent is all but similar to the fluid sold in Europe for example, different colour, smell, etc... And there is absolutely nothing on the bottle to indicate what fluid is exactly in it...
