Explicitly.  Page 48-27 of 0000.5147.30 "Fahrwerk".  I'm not going to
type it all out - it's about a page of German.

It doesn't talk about Pentosin, of course.  It refers to the old systems
using ATF-Dexron and the new using G 002 000.  It says that G 002 000
can be mixed with ATF-Dexron in older cars and that the stickers saying
"ATF-Dexron only" are no longer valid.

No.  But it does state specifically that _ONLY_ G 002 000 is to be
used in the tandem pump systems.
