Coverage and how to read this overview

Counts describe captured discussions, not unique people or a diagnosis. Author identities are not reliably stored. Exact duplicate evidence is counted once across matching discussions; one discussion counts at most once per action/state. Multiple repairs reported together remain a combination. Suggestions and failed attempts do not establish a fix. Matches cover whole discussions and can include related faults, model variants and incomplete threads.

4 eligible posts · 0 unverified posts · 1 discussions match the subject in their title or opening post.

POST 1 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi all, After my last track day, my brakes have gone a bit spongy. So I feel it is time for some new fluid. Do they replaces the fluid ona 24K service ? If not, I'll do it myself and fit stainless hoses and EBC reds but which fluid ? Any favourites out there for 80% road, 20% track ? Cheers Mav

POST 2Original post

Brake fluid is changed every two years; you can request a change any time and it will set you back by £107 fixed price at the OPC.

POST 3Original post

You have 2 choices IMO - ATE super blue fluid (£12 per litre) or Castrol SRF (£50 per litre) Both of these have a significantly higher boiling point than standard fluid. Upgrading the pads (EBC, Porterfield or Pagid) and brake lines to stainless steel are also worthwhile doing at the same time - you will notice a big difference on the track, next time around HTH

POST 4 / ORIGINAL POSTEROriginal post

Hi, ATE super blue it is then, I also fit the hoses at the same time. £107 to bleed brakes, bet it takes them seconds with a proper workshop brake bleeding tool. Besides with the wheel off it is a good opportunity to clean and inspect the bits and bobs you can see. Not to mention maybe paint the calipers red Mav
