Brake fluid
 

I'm changing my hoses for goodrich braided one but what's the best fluid to use

I use motul 5.1, from ASP

Dot 4 or 5.1

Dot 5.1 has a much higher boiling point than the the DOT 4, so if you drive hard or on track the 5.1 is better, on the road it probably wont matter!

Ok thanks guys 5.1it is

motul 5.1 here too :)

5.1 from AS Performance.

If your order it now you will have it tomorrow.

I use a dot 4 solution, Motul RBF600 fluid. Very good and has never cooked up on me and i have realy pushed it! One of the most recommended fluids... Read the spec:

I use AP Racing 5.1 - ordered from Demon "send you the wrong thing" Tweeks.

Never know if I might have to really push my brakes on the drive to work. Or going to Tesco to get the shopping. ;)

Steve, when you thinking of getting the stuff? Need to do mine so can go halfs on the carridge?

I have AP Raing DOT 5.1 at the mo. Have heard the Motul stuff is pretty good but may stick to the AP Raing fluid again?

Thats the stuff i use, i assumed it was dot 5.1 rather than 4 (hence my previous post).

steve ive just orderd mine went for ap 5.1

OK matey. Sorry missed your call. Was putting Abi to bed. Just going to wobble my arris down the gym . Give you a call back tomorrow mate.

not totally true unfortunately as confusingly you can have various specs of dot4 fluid from budget discount centre stuff thro to full race fluid like RBF600, etc........

as with most things ideally you want the "best" fluid for your use and a sa general rule you cant go far wrong with the likes of motul 5.1 as a good all round fast road type fluid that will cope with light track use........next up would be the likes of the RBF600 & 660, but for extreme/race use now we use the newly released Performance Friction RH665 brake fluid
