There was something similar on the m3 forum yesterday. Everyone saying get this and that, but I said whats the difference between that and haulfords 5.1 fluid? I didnt get a answer. Fair enough if its a track car but a daily?

Halford's will be buying it from the same place as most of the other brands and sticking their sticker on it, so long as it complies with the requirements for a 5.1 fluid its just brand snobbery in 95% of cases.
