is dot5.1 really recommended for our cars??? i have seen on here that it doesnt suit our braking system; BMC etc.........

I think i am going to just put some fresh DOT4 in and see if that makes an improvement. No idea when it was last flushed.[/quote]



If you go back to original #1 post , I think you are losing track .......Dot 5.1 is ok for our cars braking systems , all it is , is a higher temperature fluid . Do not mix with Dot 4 tho' .

A good flush then a four corner bleed , stating at the furthest corner , n/r/s , then the f/o/s is last .
