As long as you don't get it mixed up with your blinker fluid.

Wow. Never heard of it. It is BMW recommended because I just looked over my maintenance plan and it doesn't mention blinker fluid maintenance. Could it be lifetime fill?

Depends on the number of cylinders you have.
Just add to the master cylinder.

The manufacturer recommends using a special pilot wrench, to remove the nut behind the wheel. Details in the link.
