Default Brake Flush w/ATE SuperBlue and ATE Type 200 Gold

- When I replaced the stock brake fluid with SuperBlue, it took me 3/4 of a bottle to get the whole job done.

- This weekend, I tried to flush out the SuperBlue and replace it with the Type 200 Gold. I followed the same procedure but it took me 1 whole bottle of Type 200 Gold to flush out the 1st caliper!!! I only had 1 bottle of the Type 200 Gold since I didn't think it would take more than that judging from my first brake flush so I thought I was SOL.

- Luckily, I had a another brand new can of the SuperBlue. I was able to flush out the first caliper of the Type 200 Gold only using 1/4 of the SuperBlue and do the other 3 calipers using the rest of the can.

What da dilly?!

Yup.. what da deal.
They are the same thing... just different colors.

The fluids mixed and the blue was diluted in the 200.. it took a while (longer) to flush it out.

I used 3/4 of the can doing my brakes as well.........make sure dirt and old fluids are out. I'd rather use that much then not do it right.

I usually use 0.90 liter to do the flush and use the rest to change the clutch fluid

1 liter should be enough.
