Brake fluid question
 
Total noob question here, Im upgrading my brake pads and fluid this weekend. Is one bottle of Motul 1/2L Brake Fluid RBF 600 enough or do I need more?

You might need a little more if you're planning on flushing your system. I'm planning on doing mine as well and I'm estimating using 1.5 bottles.

With Motul people always use 2 bottles.

You can do 1 bottle if you're uber careful. Have 2 bottle available prior to changing brake fluid for a very complete flush. :thumbup:

Ok thanks, yeah it will be a complete flush. Also upgrading to steel lines and slotted rotors. Now lets see who has to back up their braking points! :burnrubber:

You brake to slow down; if your brakes fail and you drive through a plate-glass window, you will break it.

2 bottles. Run it all through cuz once that second bottle is open it's useless unless it's in the brake system. I've never been able to do one bottle.
