Ok thanks. So I can mix the Lockheed BF I have now with other DOT 3, 4 or 5.1 Bf of any brand.

 

I'll try to get the Ate's Super DOT 4 for the flush. Do u know how much & what qty it is being sold?

 

Thanks again.

 

Ok Sorry. I just saw your earlier post of $12 per 1 lit tin for it.

now selling $12.50 liao... still cheap, but the owner's opening price is always $14...

 

have to ask him for the $12 pricing...

[Pisces69]

Thanks Genie.

 

BTW, one of the kaki here has an extra bottle & he is so kind to let me have it. Saved me the trouble of going on an expedition to search for it.

 

I think I need to flush cos already >2 years since I changed brake pads & flushed the fluid.

 

This time I might just do a partial flush of the BF instead of a total flush.

 

I remember there were times that I never flushed the BF for up to 7 years even.

A kaki from MCF has bought at $12.50 & he letting me have it at that price cos he got extra.

bro..u kw hw much to do flush brake fluid?

[Pisces69]

Er....U mean the labour charges? Sud b about 10-20bucks most. BF u have to pay as per how much is used I guess.

 

Last time I did it at Simon's place when they changed my brake pads & I asked them to do a complete flush.

 

The bill was a lump-sum incl BF flushing & cost of BF too.

Woot! Got the ATE super dot4 brake fluid today.

 

For those interested, the name of the shop is Auto United Motor

 

 

Say...Genie...the owner did say got a Dr. from biopolis come and buy from him...is he referring to you?

[Vtim]

so for my 8 seater, I'll need 2L for a complete flush

[Genie47]

8-seater or 4-seater. Most important is how much brake lines you have and how big is the pump and reservoir.

[Vtim]

Will check my car manual, hopefully it's stated there how much to use

next time must announce so i can tompang k?

[Cordia_gsr]

are you using the dot 3 or dot 5.1 lockheed? i was on dot 5.1 before and i find it too corrosive to the brake pump gasket. changed to dot 3. much better.

[Clubace]

Can help you get a tin if i passby....you want it?

[Lukie102]
