flas12345 Posted March 26, 2007 Report Share Posted March 26, 2007 usually on top of the cylinder it will say 'use dot 4 or 5.1' so yeah dot 4 will work fine.cheers lou. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WeeGee Posted March 27, 2007 Report Share Posted March 27, 2007 You can put Dot 4 with 5.1, although for the sake of a few quid at Halfords I'd always stick with what's already in the brake system! Considering you have £130 of brake it's worth spending a bit extra to keep the system as pure as possible. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
