What is the correct, updated oil for the SLS system on these cars? Trying to revive a kaput system on a 745i here.
Thanks!
I make E23 parts.

E24, E28 produced prior to 9/87
Pentosin CHF 4548 was used for initial factory filling.
For filling up and replacement the following oil is to be used:
Pentosin CHF 7.1 BMW Part No. 81 22 1 468 879
Pentosin CHF 4548 and CHF 7.1 can be mixed in these cars.
For complete system oil replacement:
Reputable brand name LHM oils (green color) can also be used (Shell, Castrol, Exxon, etc.)
Note: Mixing of CHF and LHM oils is not permitted.
As Pentosin CHF 7,1 is also NLA, you can use Febi Bilstein 06162
Power Steering Fluid (Mineral, Febi Bilstein, 1 Liter)
All-purpose high-performance hydraulic fluid formulated for central hydraulic systems such as power steering, rear axle steering, level control, hydro-pneumatic suspension, and shock absorbers.
•Mineral oil-based
•Size: 1 liter (1.06 quarts)
•Color: Green
•Equivalent of the discontinued Pentosin CHF 7.1
The equivalent for Pentosin CHF 11S is Febi Bilstein 6161 synthetic
I also use the Febi Bilstein 06162 in my E32 750 11/88, which was originally filled with Pentosin CHF7.1

Perfect! Thanks, Shogun. If I am ever in Japan or you in the states, dinner is on me!
