Assuming I just need to add fluid, which is the right one? Pelican sells:
  • ATE Super
  • ATE Gold
  • ATE DOT 4
  • ATE SL.6 DOT 4
  • Pentosin DOT 4

Thanks
You do not want to use the ATE Sl.6, which is a special low viscosity fluid for use in some cars that require it for their stability management systems; any of the rest of them would be fine.
