Hey peoples,

Not to long ago i through on a HSV VX Clubby brake set up onto the wags, standard pads were used that came with and the brake fluid remained the same......After reading back through the forums i found alot of info on diff pads but not alot on fluid, i think i have chosen my pad of choice but want some advice on what brake fluid people use or they just stick with the standard stuff??????

cheers

castrol is okay dot 4 i think, the most important thing is flush your fluid each year as it absorbs moisture your caliper piston wont rust out,:flip2:

Don't bother with DOT4, DOT5.1 (don't confuse it with DOT5) is the best :yup:
