jay5041 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Hi people just a quick question recently just got a refurbed j spec caliper an some new pads from chris wilson (thanks chris). Â Just noticed though need a top up on brake fluid, i've heard you can mix dot 3 with dot 4 fluid. Does anyone know for definate if thats true?? Mines got dot 3 at the moment an no where sells the stuff only dot 4! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wantasupra Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 yes you can mix dot 3 and 4. but why dont you change just to dot 4 than refill. has a higher boiling point so would be better on brakes any how.  b Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 More to the point, what are the chances you would be gutted you didn't if you did need to brake hard. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dnk Posted June 4, 2009 Share Posted June 4, 2009 Has your brake fluid ever been changed ? i did a full fluid change to Motul RBF600, its hardly exspensive to do and a must in my opinion. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tango Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 hi there, how do you do a full change? thanks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scott Posted July 17, 2009 Share Posted July 17, 2009 Probably best to take it to a garage bud. Its an easy enough job but if you don't have the foggyest its best to leave it to the experts. You could hang around and watch so that you knew what to do the next time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
