brake fluid

[Super_Marv]

ATE Superblue has always been DOT 4 as far as I know. It exceeds the minimum spec requirements for DOT 5 anyway and Porsche recommends DOT 4 for our cars too.

The yellow version is known as TYP 200.

try graham goode racing in leicester, on the a6 near the racecourse

Chris G - The only Graham Goode Racing I know of is on the Lutterworth Road about a mile from me.

There is a very good long established motor shop in Oadby on the A6,just up the road from the racecourse, but I haven't seen a Graham Goodes over there.

Used to know the guys who did all the bodywork for G G in the '80s, when he was racing the Cossies, they barely had time for any paying jobs!

Motul rbf (600?)is fine (and cheaper)

Any high boiling point dot 4 should work

Where do you buy it from? The Motul RBF 600 has always been more expensive when I've looked. I bought a litre of ATE Superblue from Eurocarparts for £11.75 +VAT earlier this year. Motul stuff seems to be about double the price?

FWIW I used DOT5.1 from HalFrauds when I did mine a few weeks ago. I needed some (thought I had some in stock but didn't) and didn't have a car to travel any further.

It works fine. And cost about £12.50p for a litre.


Oli.

Wow - that's cheap! I'd reckoned on £20+ for a litre of the ATE.

FWIW I think Motul is about the same price - hadn't factored in that it comes in 500ml containers
