ATF power steering fluid brand recommendation?
 
2005 X5 3.0i

What type of ATF fluid/oil do I need for power steering? It's very low and I want to fill it back up right away. Owner's manual doesn't say anything and the cap just says "ATF only". Please help.

I just use Mobil 1 synthetic ATF on mine when I flushed it out

I'm just adding not flushing. So would it be ok to just add the Mobil brand ATF to what I already have?

that's what I did (I didn't flush I just emptied the reservoir a few times with a turkey baster and refilled, emptied and refilled so I could get mostly new oil in the system)

Just buy a quart you'll be good!
