Follow this link for an explanation of the properties of ATF+4, it is a very special fluid, after reading this you wouldn't want to risk using anything else http://www.allpar.com/mopar/transmissions/fluids.html
I had my 545 rfe serviced at Wholesale Autos late last year and I asked them about ATF+4 so they looked it up. According to them, it's just a reasonable quality Full Synthetic ATF. No issues as long as you don't mix it with a Semi.

Yep, around 6.5L if you're doing half flush. There is also 7L in the torque converter, but I used 17L all up when I did the full flush in my Grand. Took an extra 4L until all old fluid was out.

Give Wholesale Autos a call or use their 'ask orto' service. I've found them to be really helpful.
