Where can i get it.?
 
HI~~

I bought a X5 2001/59K miles.
acyually, i wanna change oil, such as engine,brake,power steering oil and
coolant because i can not know when those were changed.
Thus, i am looking for 'ATE TYP 200' for brake oil.
However, i could not find it at offline car part shop, such as advanced auto part or auto zone.

where can i buy it, ATE TYP 200 for brake oil.?
and should i change all of those oil?
and what else should i change??

thanks for your reply~

I'm not really sure but from what I heard the oil used in the X is similar if not exactly the same as Castrol Fully Synthetic 5W 30 motor oil. Please verify, I could be wrong but then again I once added a quart of Castrol oil during a long trip without any negative effects.

Sorry, I'm only talking about motor oil.

First of all ..........:xoutpost: :band: Secondly. You could try a BMW dealershop. You don't have to buy anything. Just go to the parts counter and and all the questions you want. Make sure you write everything down. Establish a relationship with them. At some point you may need them. Also you could let people know where your located. Someone may be near you that could help you out.

I run ATE superblue and love it. Just order it online im sure there are pletny of places to get it from. Also lots of people will alternate between ATE Blue and ATE Gold, so they can see when the brakes have been fully bled and you are using all new fluid.

Good luck!
