Default Brake Fluid Amount..

Hi

Sorry if its been answered already.... ( I did search!)

How much brake fluid is required when doing a complete change.

The car is a MY00 Turbo 2000.

I have 3x500ml bottle at the mo, I am told this is enough but I would like to make sure..

cheers!

depends how efficiently you do it, under a litre is possible but 1.5ltrs should be fine............

That's plenty.
Normally use about 800 ml.
I use ATE blue, so you can see it come through by the change in colour.
