Going to renew the brake fluid on Miggy along with disc and pad renewal on all wheels. I need to know how much fluid to get I've looked everywhere possible on the forum, and even in Haynes without success, just a rough guide will do. I believe Dot 4 to be the proper grade.Hope someone knows, I'll simply think of a number then double it, and surplus left will be on garage shelves, along with everything else as I am a hoarder and can't help it   Thanks all,

Not sure on full capcity but, I use 1 litre for a full change and flush

It's best to buy only what you need, as well, as it deteriorates nearly as badly in a half empty bottle as it does sitting in your fluid reservoir.

I got some on TC last time I was at the stealers and, IIRC, it was very reasonably preiced.

I think Haynes says .5L which is not enough in practice. I would go a for a 1 L bottle.

So if I got 2Ltrs I should be ok for a generous system flush.Thanks for all your help, oh and Kevin "IIRC" whats this? At a guess surprise-surprise.Might be nice to know of a manual of translateory text,To use to analyse of course. Only

Take a look into the 'Omega FAQ' section.
Under the sub-heading at the top of the first page, click on 'Common Acronyms' - they're listed there.
