[QUOTE=M-R-P;750610]Halfords dot 5.1[/QUOTE] Me too. :D

Going to get hel brake lines the fluid comes with them
[QUOTE=abdul;750642]Going to get hel brake lines the fluid comes with them[/QUOTE] Give the system a good flush with a cheap fluid of the same specification before filling with the good stuff to make sure it's completely fresh.
There used to be issues with the synthetic fluid when I raced bikes. System has to be absolutely clear of all old fluid otherwise is contaminates.
It was the silicon fluid I used.
I use Castrol race fluid, because I get it through work. http://www.advantage-motorsport.co.uk/castrol-react-srf-racing-brake-fluid-1-ltr.html?gclid=CISfw4HKrMICFW7MtAodIWsATA

I'll be changing the fluid in all my cars (oh focking joy) as it's something that's always over looked. I'll wait for the braided lines as well (yes on all of them)
