Anybody here tried Castrol GT LMA Brake Fluid b4 ?
 
Im gonna swap my brake lines tomorrow and of course I will bleed the lines/brakes

got 2 bottle of these few days ago.

IT seems that its DOT 4 fluid, the bottle (or website) did not directly said rather its a DOT 4 or 3 brake fluid, it just said that it exceed the Dot 3/4 Specification.

and its vegetable base oil

Anybody tried these b4 ? how do they perform ? damn I search already and I think Im probably first and *only one* who ask this.

I have used it exclusively in my street driven vehicles for about 15 years now.

It tends to last around 2 years/ 20K miles before needing replacing... about twice as long as any other brake fluid I have used, and seems to resist boiling much longer than any other brake/clutch fluids I have used.

I just bought a 1 litre bottle of this exact brake fluid... I haven't tried it yet but I'd be interested to know, too, if anyone else used this in their 8.

It's great !

I use this on the track all the time.

really.

I was about to change my brake lines to SS ones but cant find my damn wheel lock for most of the day .... and then couple minutes ago I finally remember .... when I was cleaning my trunk the other day I took everything out and I left it in my garage .... what a dumbass ...

Will change it and bleed my brakes with this sucker tomorrow. Thx !
