What brake fluid should I use for the flush and fill..... oem from stealer?

How much fluid should I have on hand for the flush and fill?

As far as pads I just cannot make up my mind between Textar and Akebono ceramic. I am not hard on the brakes and would really like to eliminate the dust. After reading the post below I may just change out the rear pads so they all match.

Thanks in advance,

Mike
I found Pentosin at Pep Boys for a fair price.

I use these on my BMW and my Boxster, wonderful product and not overly expensive.

I actually replaced my front rotors with these at Advance Auto and have had great results
