Pentosin CHF11s or Audi (G 002 000) fluid
Pentosin is hard to find locally but not hard to find online.

Do not use the off the shelf store bands. Audi's require mineral based fluid, not petroleum based.

Dealer price is criminal (like $13 for a half-pint). I bought 4-5x that amount from GermanAutoParts.com for $10.
