How much do you need for the job? 2L?

 

[PaulW]

You can do it with 1 litre I'm sure, you don't need to purge much if your upgrading from standard fluid obviously because its dyed.

 

[monkfish/R32]

Do I just need 2 litres when bleeding brakes
As I mights actually get around to fitting my porky brembos this year

 

[PaulW]

You need 1.15 litres all in, that's including the slave. So I imagine you COULD get away with 1

[monkfish/R32]

It's a great fluid. I'll be upgrading to this at my next service.

 

[Dodders]

Yep,Got mine booked in to have ATE to replace the old fluid next month come service time
Think i paid very similar price too at ECP, once various voucher codes were added.

You'll use more like 1.5 litres if you do the brakes and clutch, done it a few times. You'll flush your clutch a couple of times when you see how much crap comes out.

Clutch? excuse my ignorance Lee

Clutch? excuse my ignorance Lee

Bleed the Slave too for a complete cleanout

Some people also cycle the ABS pump with fresh fluid but its unnecessary unless it runs dry

 

[Predator_R32]

Can very easily be done with 1 litre but always best to buy more for top ups and when it's that cheap your be stupid not to I got mine from euro car parts for a bit cheaper than that with a discount code they had before chrimbo

The topic doesn't mention the 2 bleed nipples on the master cylinder, I always bleed them as well.
