I like Pentosin ATF1. Its the same fluid they supply VW/Audi. I get it locally for $13 per L

You want to use this fluid.
They also have the right filter and gasket for you.<ul><li><a href="http://www.autopartsworld.com/1997_audi_a8-v8-3-7l_a-t-fluid_parts.html">PENTOSIN from Autopartsworld.com</a></li></ul>

N/M, 5HP19FL, so the Pentosin works. And a transmission fluids links refresher:

There are various claims of compatibility for non-Esso ATFs out there, and differing opinions on this here on the board. I'll hold off on links on those, for now.
