Hi all
Anyone know what brake fluid I should use for a 1980 105 Series Spider?
Cheers!!
I am sure any branded type Dot3, Dot 4 and Dot 5.1 spec grade brake fluids available from most Autoshops should be ok, BUT NOT the Dot 5 types though as are silicon and will ruin seals.
I use the higher grade Dot 5.1 in both my cars and it is fine. The Penrite 600 is Dot 5.1 is only $20, Motul 600 is fine but much dearer though. These are both higher boiling temp fluids so reduce brake fade/boiling.
Most Brands Dot3 stuff only costs around $10 and is fine for most road cars though.
