The Ate DOT 5.1 fluid is a low viscosity formula for modern ABS and DSC systems. BMW recommends low viscosity brake fluid for all chassis beginning with the E60 5-series. Low viscosity (LV) is a thinner fluid that works better than a normal fluid in the small channels and passageways in the ABS/DSC pump. Using the heavier fluid will result in a delayed response to ABS and DSC activation and a spongy feel in the brake pedal (only during ABS stops). A low viscosity fluid replacing DOT 4 fluid. Boiling point - Dry 265°C (509°F) / Wet 180°C (347°F) Sold per liter (1,000mL).

    The transmission is one of the vehicle’s most vital components, with numerous finely engineered precision parts making it one of the most complex and expensive units to repair or replace. Using the correct oil and replacing it at the correct time is key to preventing transmission problems such as ‘shudder’, gear stiffness, and axle whining. Damaging components before these issues occur can result in possible premature and expensive transmission failure. Only the right oil can guarantee the safe functioning of the transmission in the vehicle. High-quality transmission oils from febi are therefore precisely matched to the special requirements of vehicle manufacturers.
