When you change your fluid use one of the below or better and get a simple fluid tester for % water content.

Motul 5.1
Dry boiling point 269 °C / 516 °F
Wet boiling point 187 °C / 369 °F

Motul RBF 600
Dry boiling point 312 °C / 594 °F
Wet boiling point 204 °C / 399 °F

Castrol SRF
Dry boiling point 310deg C / 590F
Wet boiling point 270deg C / 518F
Added the F temps to the Castrol.

Just bought 2 bottles of Castrol SRF. That was $130. Cheapest place was Amazon.
