Brake Fluid Question -

[aaron1085]

I recently purchased new rotors,pads and SS lines for my 2007 A4 2.0T.

NOW, the question is; I bought one bottle (.5 liter) of Motul RBF600 DOT4 racing brake fluid. Is this the correct kind to use and I'm thinking I will need more than one bottle between new fluid and bleeding the brakes...correct?! Purchased it off ECS's site: http://www.ecstuning.com/Audi-B7_A4-...luid/ES261392/

Suggestions on fluid to use, or if this is good stuff, how many more bottles should I purchase? I will be running the new fluid atleast through winter until sunny days and then flushing it before another track day.


Thank you!

Just did mine and it required almost two 0.5 liter bottles of fluid.

what KIND is suggested?

[ryanworth]

Is it recommended to flush your brakes when doing a rotor/pad change? Or is it based on a mile judgement?

[makav3li]

any dot 4 fluid will work, so the stuff ur lookin at is fine. And brake flush and bleeds are a mile judgement thing but if u want to flush and bleed more often, deff wont hurt.

[ryanworth]

So about 80k miles and no recollection of when the brakes were flushed or changed last would be a good guess? Haha.

[makav3li]

yes that is a solid guess lol

[ryanworth]

Mmmk I thought so, lmao.

Carry on OP, sorry for the thread jack. Love you! <3

Every 2 years is a good bet for the fliud

so..guess I'll just buy another bottle of the Motul RBF600..unless someone likes something else?!?!?!

[aaron1085]

really don't know the differences between RBF600 and 660...some different wet and dry boiling points....don't think that will really matter for my application?!?
