If 446F/311F dry/wet boiling point* is not rubbish, what is? Between an E36 M3, an E46 M3, an 05 Z4 and an 07 335i I have never driven a BMW with OEM fluid whose brake pedal didn't get mushy after a couple of hard high speed stops.

*Belarus stats, not verified by me. I actually think it may be even worse than that.
