SLS Fluid Quantity ?

Hi all, I have done a search but I cant find out how much fluid the SLS suspension system holds.
Does anyone know?
It's available in 1Litre tins and BMW are actually cheaper than GSF though they both only sell the newer 11s fluid!
As my car has been off the road for a while I am going to renew all the fluid rather than just topping it up...

Also, if anyone has a set of original BMW E34 M5 owners handbooks/wallet thingy and wants to sell them please get in touch!

You shouldn't need more than a couple of litres and BMW should still sell the CHF 7.1 that you require .

Yet again Dick Lovett BMW Bristol have proved incompetent saying its been replaced by the Pentosin CHF 11s, Cotswold BMW in Cheltenham on the other hand are quite the opposite, a very helpful bunch!

Just incase anyone else needs the info, BMW's part number is 81229407549 for the Pentosin CHF 7.1 @ £6.81 + VAT per Ltr before any discount you may get.

Just a quick one to say that Audi also stock the 11 fluid due to Q7 recalls
